[Fedora] [Gnome] Use delete key to delete files

For some reason, on Fedora 21 - and possibly earlier versions too - you're required to Ctrl + Delete to send a file to the trash instead of the plain old single key Delete.

This behaviour can be reverted back to the good old ways by editing the accels file under /home/USER/.config/nautilus/

Find the line:

 ;(gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/DirViewActions/Trash" "<Primary>Delete")  


and edit it to:

 (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/DirViewActions/Trash" "Delete")  


now if you log out and in again you're set.
