This script allows users to quickly move selected files or folders to the Trash directly from Finder. Unlike existing trash scripts that operate on entire directories (Desktop, Downloads), this command works with any files/folders currently selected in Finder, making it more flexible and user-friendly. Features: - Works with multiple selected items (files and folders) - Handles filenames with spaces correctly - Executes silently without confirmation for quick workflow - Uses native Finder trash functionality
