Some time ago, somebody said me that he would like to have a chance to retrieve 
his deleted files; seen that on OS X this is the the behaviour, I've changed 
'destroy file' to 'move to Recycler'.
Besides the usual 'Cmd-D' shortcut, I've added also 'Cmd-BackSpace' to put a 
file in the recycler and 'Cmd-Shift-BackSpace' to empty the recycler. But, in 
the last time, there are many problems with keyboard shortcuts; 'Cmd-BackSpace' 
and 'Cmd-Shift-BackSpace' don't seem to work, so I've added also 
'ctrl-BackSpace' and 'ctrl-Shift-BackSpace' that do the same thing.

If you don't use desktop, you must choose Tools->Show Recycler; this will tell GWorkspace 
to use the "normal" recycler instead of the recycler of Desktop.
