Three Newb Questions

[WannaGoMac]

Hi

Couple very easy questions:

1) Is there a keyboard shortcut to delete a file? It's a pain to drag it into the trash or to right click and select move to trash.

2) How do I Zip multiple files? In windows I right click and select send to compressed folder. Didn't see anything like this on the Mac

3) Is there a shortcut to open a Terminal window from the current GUI folder?

Thanks!

(1) Apple key + delete will delete the selected file
(2) Select the files, right or ctrl-click and do a "Create archive of X items".

Apple + Backspace = Move file to trash

Apple + Shift + Backspace = Empty trash
