Clear or delete?

I'm not an english-native speaking, so I'm a little bugged by that:
When you create a new application, the default english menu contains the item "Clear" after "Paste". But in most applications (including PB and IB)
, it's replaced by "Delete". So which one should be preferred?

Moreover this menu item is connected to an action "clear:" for the first responder. I did implement this action in the main controller of my window,
which is also the delegate of an outline view. So if I use this menu while the outline view is selected, the corresponding rows are removed by my action. However, if I just type the delete key, I just get a beep.

So what should I do in order to have the delete key working in the outline view?

Thanks,

Thomas Lachand-Robert
