-  Emacs supports drag and drop so that dropping of files and text is handled.
-Currently supported drag and drop protocols are XDND, Motif and the old
-KDE 1.x protocol.  There is no drag support yet.
-When text is dropped on Emacs, Emacs inserts the text where it is dropped.
-When a file is dragged from a file manager to Emacs, Emacs opens that file.
-As a special case, if a file is dropped on a dired buffer the file is
