No, drag-and-drop would not be helpful to you here.  There is the XDnd
protocol but that's only handled by a few things, and the net result
of what you want would boil down to FvwmButtons being able to react to
the ClientMessage event, which FVWM only handles in a limited fashion,
and certainly not for what you're wanting.

Come up with something different, such as not writing this thing at
all, or making it a completely self-contained program in say, Qt, such
that you'd be responsible for handling the DnD functionality; then you
could still swallow it in FvwmButtons.

Sorry, don't know much about drag and drop.
Never had much use for it.
You might want to look at FvwmDragWell
and FvwmWharf which accepts drops.

FVWM: Drag'n Drop

2014-04-08 Thread Jakobus Schürz
Hi there!

I'm looking for a possibility for my mpd-applet. I have an applet to
controll my mpd in my FvwmButton.

Sometimes i find a link to a audio-file/stream. And i want to add this
link to my mpd as a source. The easyest way would be, to drag and drop
this link on my applet in FvwmButton.

But how can I do this? I have no idea... 

If you want, i can give you the source for my applet, which I've
programmed in the last years...
