---------------------------------------------------------------------
DragText v2.5 is now available.
DragText extends drag and drop to include text in windows, files, objects, and
the clipboard. Version 2.5 adds two new uses for a window's system menu
button, refinements to existing file and URL features, and a revised Options
notebook.
- Full-text drag: drag from the system menu button (at the left end of a
titlebar) to get the entire contents of a command line or editor window.
- Object drag: a new way to drag WPS objects: from the windows they open.
The effect is identical to dragging the original object from its WPS
folder. Press Ctrl-Shift then drag from a window's system menu button.
Shadow/move/copy/delete the object, insert its name in text, use it to
open another object, etc.
- Options notebook:
o get Quick Help for selected items. A popup window offers
a concise description of the feature and its options.
o select the style of notebook you prefer: "DragText"
(top and side tabs), "Warp v3" (all side tabs), or
"Warp v4" (the new notebook style with all top tabs).
o Use drag and drop to set the colors for the notebook's
text, background, tabs, etc.
Also included are enhancements to URL handling and NLS support,
workarounds for conflicts with other apps, and bug fixes.
