This libray should already exist since the code that is calling it is
in pd.tk (proc open_file ), if you install the tkdnd library you will be
able to drag and drop patch files. I don't know how to install it on
osx, in windows it's in pd/lib/tk in linux it's in /usr/local/lib/tk
while pd is in /usr/local/lib.
You could make a GUI fork of openpanel that outputs the file path
dragged into it?
I use the ix library that require toxy/widget, but it would be cool to
have a single external for this.
