Hum,  I have this script installed.  Had forgotten about it actually, mostly 
because it doesn't work here.  When I press the keyboard command I set up to 
move, it asks whether I want to move a folder or a file.
I Choose folder and it asks which folder I want to move.
I navigate to that folder and press enter and it asks where I want to move to.
I navigate to the folder I want to use as my destination and press enter.
Then the scrip fizzles.
When I look my folder is still in the source location.

Big hum...
