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.
