For anyone else interested, I just confirmed by testing that Shane's script does NOT actually move the current Finder selection.  It simply moves the Finder selection to the NEXT item after the current selection.

You can find Shane's script here:

Shane,
. . .

My key concern was:
It doesn't look like it changes any files or folders, but I can't be for sure, so I don't want to run it to see what happens.

So, it looks like to me that the purpose of your script is to show a better method of selecting the next Finder Item after the current selection, without actually moving the selection.

Correct, or not?
