Hi all,

A painfully simple question... In Mac OS X, how do you copy/move a file with AppleScript? The Finder's 'move' command yields a error type -15267, and Jons Commands isn't ported yet.

Any suggestions from the collective consciousness?

Thanks,
Andrew

The following has worked for me under OSX 10.1.1

tell application "Finder"
activate
move selection to folder "Desktop Pictures" of folder "Appearance" of folder "System Folder" of disk "Marvin"
end tell
