Don't Trash, Delete

Sometimes you might want to delete a file directly (like command line "rm") instead of moving it to trash.

To add that option in Gnome Nautilus file manager you can goto:

Places > Home Folder > Edit > Preferences > Behavior > Trash > Include Delete option.

Now you will get an additional delete option when you right click on a file/folder:

Gnome Gmail
