dustinti:~/prog/eprojects 591% tla move -H
move an explicit inventory tag
usage: tla move [options] from to

  -h, --help     Display a help message and exit.
  -H             Display a verbose help message and exit.
  -V, --version  Display a release identifier string
                 and exit.

Move an explicit inventory tag for FILE (which may be a regular
file or symbolic link but which must not be a directory).


	tla move explicitly states that you can't move directories.  This kind 
of seems like a harmful limitation to me.

	I can't get tla move to work on normal files, though (at least not 
when moving to a different directory).
