6243 :: moveFile

  Hello,

  The documentation of moveFile says "If dest already exists, it will be overwritten", but it raises an exception:

  .nim(94)            raiseOSError
  Error: unhandled exception: No se puede crear un archivo que ya existe.
  Additional info: "(\"b86257abd65a5deb.tmp\", \"test.txt\")" [OSError]
  Run

  It seems the flag MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING of the Windows function MoveFileEx is missing.
