Dear list,
I'm new at using scripts. This is my first attempt. I retrieved the
Move script and I thought followed the directions correctly but when I press
the command for the short cut nothing happens. Is there a place where I can
find a step by step guide to installing a script such as this one?
Also, My computer calls it a work flow is that different then a script? when I
open the Move file script it opens in Automator. I don't know really ifthat
is good or bad or means nothing.
I have a feeling scripts could be very helpful but as a newbee I would love
some direction.
