iBook, PowerBook, MacBook (Pro): The Delete key

Issue

The keyboard of Apple laptops does not have a delete key, when you need to delete a file, you must drag it to the recycle bin, or through a right click on the file. This is tedious operation, especially when using a touch pad.

Here is another alternative:

The shortcut Apple + Del (Del: clear before the cursor arrow to the left, top right of the keyboard) will act as a classical Delete key, and you can delete the / file (s) selected (s) quickly without using the mouse.
