What's the Mac keyboard shortcut to rm a file? I know command + delete sends it to trash, but I want to permanently delete it, say with command + fn + delete.
UPDATE: It doesn't look like there is one. So, I want to create a service with Automator and then assign a keyboard shortcut to it from System Preferences.
I can get to Automator -> Service -> Service receives selected files or folders in Finder.app, but how do I write the script that then runs rm -rf #{file/folder name}
?
