Commander One – Dual Pane File Manager for Mac

Doesn't seem to understand command-delete to delete a file. Just beeps at me, as does plain delete.

File menu says F8 is delete file ... which is not intuitive (or convenient) to me.

I have some directories that I need to clean up, by moving some files into more directories (sigh) or deleting files.

There doesn't appear to be a way to turn off "do you mean to delete this file?" in the preferences. And "delete" doesn't mean what I thought it meant - I want to do what it calls "permanently delete".

Guess it's back to two finder windows.

Shift-fn-delete seems to do a perma-delete, but still displays the "r u sure?" prompt.

F8 is actually the default hotkey for deletion in all OFMs. Delete would usually be reserved for editing the command line.

How about fn-delete? Or maybe I'll download and try it myself...

EDIT: Yep, that works.
