In all fareness it's a function not a trick and has been described by david Woodbridge and others since ml. It's stupid for osx to allow cut for editing audio, text etc and not file management but apple aren't consistent but sure are proud.
If some don't know about move perhaps some don't know about consecutive and non consecutive file selection so if no one else does, when I'm at my computer ill write a little bit on that. Kind regards Danny.
