AddKeyCmd

I finally got tired of clicking file name, moving the mouse, clicking Delete in
the command window, and then pressing Enter to delete files in OS4 version.

Checked the manual, found the AddKeyCmd command, and put the following in my
configuration:

AddKeyCmd Del, Delete %s

When I saved, relaunched, and tried it out on a piece of junk, the first press
of the Delete key highlighted the directory name in the window title bar, and
further presses of the Delete key deleted the directory name, letter by letter.

Is it pretty obvious what I am doing wrong?
