10.6: Move files or folders in Finder (Cut/Paste)

In Finder there is no easy way to move files, similar to Windows cut and paste (Ctrl+X, Ctrl+V). I created a simple Automator Service, which does it for me.

To optimize it I created a macro in Keyboard Maestro.

When I select files or folders in Finder I call the macro and I can navigate to the target folder.

It's a pretty straightforward process:

• Launch Automator and create a new Service.
• The Service receives selected 'files or folders' in 'any application.'
• Choose 'Get Selected Finder Items.'
• Then choose 'Move Finder Items To: .'
• Tick 'Show this action when the workflow runs' under Options.

In Keyboard Maestro create a macro which will Execute Automator Workflow.
