Confuse using gnome

i'm new linux...

when i press the delete button on my keyboard to delete files, gnome
will not respond with a confirmation dialog. Although those deleted
files automatically moved to trash, i want a confirmation dialog
appears to confirm delete action.

BTW, there is no problem in KDE.

By default there's no configmation dialog to show up when you do a delete.
Should you however do a Shift+Del to permanently delete a file you get a 
confirmation dialog.

Niclas Ekstedt,

Checking up on this a bit more, it looks like you're out of luck.
It's possible to get a confirmation dialog before emptying trash or 
permanently deleting a file (shift+del), but just to get a confirmation 
before deleting anything to trash, is not :-(

AFAICT, there are discussions on adding this feature to Nautilus, however 
how far that's gone I don't know.

There are ways around this though, not in Nautilus, but you could for 
example use gnome-commander or konqueror that has this feature.
