Delete one file from trash

Question

Hi,
Is there a key combination to delete a selected file/folder from the trash?
I have looked online and can't find any solution. The closest I have found is to use rm command in terminal, is there a way of adding to the right click menu?
Thanks

I use the following Automater workflow to add opening a terminal to the context sensitive menu. As seems to be normal here the quote has had its indentation massacred. Save the workflow in ~/Library/Services and it will be added to the right click menu. It should be easy enough to adapt it to use the rm command, I'd look into the Run Shell Script instead of launching terminal.
Run AppleScript:
on run {input, parameters}
tell application "Finder"
set myWin to window 1
set theWin to (quoted form of POSIX path of (target of myWin as alias))
tell application "System Events" to set isActive to (name of processes) contains "Terminal"
tell application "Terminal"
activate
if not isActive then
set visible of window 1 to false
end if
tell window 1
do script "cd " & theWin & ";clear"
end tell
end tell
end tell
return input
end run
