Stop naming it "erase" in one half of the programms and "send to trash*" in the other half.
I use two foreign-language versions of ubuntu (German and French). To get rid of a file, I generally right-click and chose "erase" from the menu. This doesn't work half of the time, because the function is inexistant; they now call it "send to trash*".
The actual names in german and french are
- löschen // in den Müll verschieben
- effacer // envoyer à la poubelle
It makes life a lot more difficult and I stumble over that error every time, when I just want to erase a file and I just cant't find the erase function. I want to get rid of something; I don't want to move the trash around - I want it to dissappear - and I want a word for it - ONE WORD! - in the right-click menues.
please name that function "erase // löschen // efacer // ..." in every language and in every program - make it even a criteria for packages to make it into the repos. I am shure we all know, that there is a trash/dustbin and how it works.
* I do NOT know, how these two versions are called in english as I do NOT hava an english system at hand. You may call it "send to trash" or "move to dustbin" or "dump it in the symbol at the lowest, rightmost corner" or .... you got it!
