Subject: drag and drop text
Date: Thu, 04 Jun 2009 09:03:21 +0200

I use windows as operating system. I want to drag text from text editor or browser (say Wordpad or Firefox) and drop it in emacs, but this is not possible, drop is not allowed. On the other side, if I drag an unknown filetype (say, an *.rdp-File) into emacs, it is dropped as text.
