I’ve just uploaded an new utility called dndlist to my software
page. All it does is sit there and wait for you to drag something
to it at which point it lists all the types that the dragged object
supports. It was my reaction to the frustration, while writing drag
and drop support for gnometris, of not being sure what nautilus or
konqueror where trying to provide me with. Reading the source for
nautilus was easy enough, but I’m not familiar with Qt and so I gave
up on konqueror pretty quickly. Hence dndlist
was born.
The observant will note that it is also the first addition to my
software page and as a consequence is quite lonely. I’m not very good
at carrying through with my bright ideas.
