You haven't been following the "grapevine documentation" for TOS 1.4, Aaron..
(what..?   you expected docs for your $100...?  get real)
 
Atari *DID* include a MOVE operation in TOS 1.4...  
 
It's Shift/Alt/Control/Help/Undo/Uppercase M/Lowercase M (at the same time)
while click dragging the file to its destination...
 
Far more intuitive than a drop-down menu option.. (what do you think this i..
a Graphics Environment Manager...?)
 
I'm sure someone here will tell you the actual procedure...
 
Pretty unnerving to think Atari is in such a bad financial situation that the
couldn't even afford to send out a mimeographed sheet with the ROMs to dealrs
 
(You *CAN* get TOS 1.4 documentation, but that requires joining the $300 club
