Hi,
I have started Wiki page for this issue, called "Drop files event" (see: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Files_drop_event).
Feel free to add there your notes and ideas.
When the details will are clear, I could start implementation for LCL, Win and Carbon.

Maybe it is better to call the event OnDropFile or OnDropFiles instead of the 
proposed OnFilesDrop.

I stand for OnFilesDrop. There are similar event names, like OnDockDrop. It is in plural to show it is handling array of files (array event parameter is quite unusual).

I agree with the plural.
From http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Nomenclature:
Event properties should be named On.... starting with an adjective, then verb, 
then a noun (some are optional): like OnFilterRecord, OnPostError, OnDblClick 
(adjective to verb first)

I don't know the OnDockDrop event, but to me it seems to signal a state while 
docking: first you dock over (OnDockOver) and then you Dock what has been 
dropped. Dock is the verb. But this is speculation...

I surrender, you have convinced me by this precise explanation. I'll rename it to OnDropFiles.

Tom
