Wasn't sure how this works, but now that i'm loving this 5-watt hero for torrents, started using the GUI to right-click delete a file that completed a copy to the (Windows7 x64) desktop machine. Thought it was all deleted. I never found Trash in my Debian Pogos and assumed what you delete is totally gone.

As I was about to make a USB-to-USB copy on Windows, just for kicks I ran TreeSize Pro, an app that pie charts your directories by size. So the torrent repository was displayed up top. I deleted the files from Windows (knowing i had a backup if that failed) and it works in the Pogo fine.

Maybe a better question is, how can we know what we delete is now free space?

In my situation using Pogplug/Debian for Samba and torrents, and once a week using RDP to get the XFCE usable, installing BleachBit was the answer. And be conservative what is checkboxed lol

I know seasoned Linux users have simpler terminal commands which don't require additional software but for now this gets me through.
