 I see a problem here. file_moved is expecting a filename,
  but you are passing it a file object ?

 Also the file comparision (eachfile == filename) is not good.
 Not sure what you are trying to do here, if you are trying to
 compare the data, you should instead say,

 eachfile_data = open(eachfile, 'r').read()
 if eachfile_data == filename_data:
     ...

But again, you are not passing file data, but file object
to the function.

Please re-analyze your logic, and post the new code
 correcting such obvious errors to somewhere like pastebin.ca
 and post the URL here.
