Hi all.  New on the list.

As a longtime shell scripter but relatively new Mac user, I'm trying
to find my way to use Automator, but I'm finding that it just can't
seem to (or at least doesn't seem to be able to) do what I want.

Here's an example:

1) Select files in FInder
2) Trigger Automator script which will:
2.a) Prompt me for the name of a new Folder
2.b) Create that new folder in the current directory
2.c) Move the selected files to that new folder.

I'm sensing that what I really need is AppleScript, but I thought I'd ask.

Thanks

TjL
