One of the "missing" features on a Mac (according to me) is the absence of the Windows equivalent of Shift-Del to directly delete unwanted files without having to move them to the Trash and then deleting them from there.
Careful, though! You don't want to delete your entire hard disk by mistake. Check everything before you press Return!
Hope this workaround helps...
Launch your Terminal app and type
rm -rf
(note: press the spacebar after you've typed -rf)
Highlight files/folders you want to delete.
Drag them to your Terminal window (and you should see details of the files/folders you just dragged).
Again ... pl be Careful! You don't want to delete your entire hard disk by mistake. Check everything before you press Return!
Press Return to enter the command.
This will bypass the trash.
(note: you will not get any audio paper-crush feedback)
