Notice holding down the Option key also changes the menu text to show “Move Items Here” to further signify the difference.</p> <p>This is a feature many Windows converts have been wanting for a long time. Prior to this, users would drag and drop items into their new locations to move them, or use the command line mv tool. Those still work too though, obviously.</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/T_tM-9Pe21w4nVwTBrfiIPWJcr4/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/T_tM-9Pe21w4nVwTBrfiIPWJcr4/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/T_tM-9Pe21w4nVwTBrfiIPWJcr4/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/T_tM-9Pe21w4nVwTBrfiIPWJcr4/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=WLQZ3XJTmP8:M0LIpGgr508:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=WLQZ3XJTmP8:M0LIpGgr508:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=WLQZ3XJTmP8:M0LIpGgr508:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=WLQZ3XJTmP8:M0LIpGgr508:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=WLQZ3XJTmP8:M0LIpGgr508:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=WLQZ3XJTmP8:M0LIpGgr508:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=WLQZ3XJTmP8:M0LIpGgr508:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/WLQZ3XJTmP8" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
