But when I try to drop something on it nothing happens. Sorry I guess
there is something fundamental that I am missing.

Pedro, I'll reply to this message instead of the last one because, I
actually tried the little script you have there, and it does work
I'm on Windows though.
Well, my version of your script is this:
-------------------------
import sys
for arg in sys.argv:
print arg
raw_input()
-------------------------
The raw_input() at the end is what keeps the window open so I can see
that something really happened before the window closed.
When I drop a file into my script, it prints two lines: The script
filename and the filename of the file I dropped.
So I call it a win.
I don't know how it behaves in mac, but please try and tell. (Also put
your usual #!/usr/bin/env python in there to work for you)
Nick
