Here it is again, for those who missed it the first time.
movefile.scpt, save it, and load it into apple script editor,

Poof, a move file/directory command (and it will move anything, no
need to add it to a list first)
** cut here **
tell application "Finder"
set btn to button returned of (display dialog "Move file or
folder?" buttons {"file", "folder"})
if btn is equal to "file" then
set file1 to POSIX path of (choose file)
else if btn is equal to "folder" then
set file2 to POSIX path of (choose folder)

display dialog "Error in script."

set movestr to "mv " & file1 & " " & file2 as text

-- quit
end tell
--display dialog file1 & " was moved to " & file2

Feel free to remove the try/endtry blocks, since they're not quite
