I've completed the first HOW-TO and is available on the main fltk webpage.
The direct link to the article is:

http://www.fltk.org/articles.php?L770

I plan on writing two more HOW-TOs on this topic. The second would be
Sending/Initiating DND (perhaps sending file path(s) to a file browser
where the file browser would either copy or move the file). The third
how-to I am think of is "Runtime Widget Adoption" (title is a work in
progress :) ). I have a small demo that shows how one can drag a widget and
it becomes a child of a Fl_Scroll. I am thinking this would be usefull
mostly for dragging elements in an app from one Fl_Group (and its
derivatives) to another. Perhaps even moving rows from Greg's Fl_Table_Row
from one table to another?

I welcome any comments or suggestions.

Thanks for your help on this!
