@cindex drag and drop
- Emacs supports drag and drop so that dropping of files and text is handeled.
+ 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
copied or moved (depends on exactly how it is dragged and the application
it was dragged from) to the directory the dired buffer is displaying.
+@vindex x-dnd-test-function
+@vindex x-dnd-known-types
+ When a user drags something from another application over Emacs, that other
+application expects Emacs to tell it if Emacs can handle the data that is
+dragged. The variable @code{x-dnd-test-function} is used by Emacs to determine
+what to reply. The default value is @code{x-dnd-default-test-function}
+which accepts drops if the type of the data to be dropped is present in
+@code{x-dnd-known-types}. You can customize @code{x-dnd-test-function} and/or
+@code{x-dnd-known-types} if you want Emacs to accept or reject drops based
+on some other criteria.

@vindex x-dnd-open-file-other-window
A file is normally opened in the window it is dropped on, but if you
prefer the file to be opened in a new window you can customize the variable
You can customize the option @code{use-file-dialog} to suppress the
use of file selection windows even if you still want other kinds
-of dialogs. This option has no effect if you have supressed all dialog
+of dialogs. This option has no effect if you have suppressed all dialog
boxes with the option @code{use-dialog-box}.
+@vindex x-use-old-gtk-file-dialog
+ For Gtk+ version 2.4, you can make Emacs use the old file dialog
+by setting the variable @code{x-use-old-gtk-file-dialog} to a non-@code{nil}
+value. If Emacs is built with a Gtk+ version that has only one file dialog,
+the setting of this variable has no effect.
