Re: drag and drop

Actually, SwiftForth itself supports drag and drop. Drag a file to
the console window and it will be INCLUDEd. See DragDrop.F

Subject: [sftalk] drag and drop

I would like to drag a file onto a turnkey that I create using SF, and
then have the turnkey proceed to act upon the file... open it, do
things to it, etc.
Does anyone have advice on how to accomplish this? I am not sure what
the EXE "sees" when a file is dropped onto it, nor how I can access
the filespec, for example. If someone has an example of a simple
application that works that way, I could probably figure it out from
there.

Suggestions would be much appreciated.
