Dragging and Dropping
As long as you have sufficient permissions, most files and folders can be moved to any part of your filesystem by dragging and dropping them (although I recommend doing so only with nonsystem files; by moving a system file, you might disrupt the operation of some programs). To do this, place the mouse pointer over a file, press and hold down the left mouse button, drag the file to its destination folder, and then release the mouse.
As you do this, the mouse pointer will change to represent a hand grabbing something with an arrow pointing at the hand. This indicates that you are using the move feature, as shown in Figure 6-3 where the file inventory.txt has just been grabbed, ready for moving somewhere else.
