I have heard many cries about the lack of a recycle bin in Linux.
Just remember that if you want to get rid of things for ever, you use "rm".
"rm" means I want it dead, gone, never to plague me again...
"mv" means move. Move the files from here to there, move it to the recycle bin,
wherever you want it moved, "mv" will move it.
So it's easy.
cd ~
mkdir trash
mv Junk trash
So long as the Junk is on the same disk as trash the move is instantaneous. (No
reason why you can't have one trash bin per disk...)
ps: Just remember to take out the trash every now and then...
To see how full your disk is...
df -h
To see which file / directory is hogging your disk...
du -akx /path/to/disk | sort -n > hogs
less hogs

From this principle, all of life and physics may be deduced.
