Hi all

I am far from an experienced linux user, however I can find my way
around a linux system.

I use Puppy Linux which uses Seamonkey as the default browser.

Now, in Seamonkey-1.x series I (and all other Puppy users) could drag
a link or an image from the browser to a directory and wget would
automatically start and download the file. Nice feature.

In all seamonkey-2.x series so far this option seems not possible. I
have tried static builds, official mozilla builds and have compiled
seamonkey myself (several times) and still can not get this
functionality. Is there a ./configure option to enable this? If there
is I would have thought it would be the default.

Any help will be appreciated.

Puppy must be doing something special, because the term "drag a link or an image from the browser to a directory" doesn't connect with any behavior I've seen, there being no directory anywhere in sight.

As far as the action goes, I assume you would right click and use either "save image" or "save link target" to get the pop-up menu and select a destination.

Other than installing Puppy in a VM I can't imagine what you are actually doing.
