I have one such program as well.   It was posted here a while ago in asm
source form.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get it to work with TOS 1.4.
I haven't found the time to figure out why.

Incidentally, since there is a "Move" command, and since the desktop now
preserves the file date/time entry, I have resumed to use the desktop.
I like it, too!

OK, so I'll withhold my suggestions for TOS 1.8 until you're done with that
environment setter DA we're all waiting for. :-)
