[PD] drag and drop external?

hi,
here's my personal hack to provide a windows PD with drag and drop features.
it's a modified .tcl script i from IOhannes (originally from here:
https://github.com/pd-externals/gui-plugins/tree/master/dropsuite)
the script provides the following:
original script:
1.) opens a PD patch when dropped onto PD window
2.) creates a PD object when a .pd file is dropped upon a patch canvas
the modified part:
3.) sends the name of any dropped file (anything else than "*.pd") to a
global receiver. with the extra information of a GOP size and position,
a "drop field" can be defined (see subpatch "dropname").
the whole mechanism is, as i said, a hack and needs IEMGUTS loaded. also
an extra tcl package called "tkdnd2.6" (included in attached .zip).
it's perfectly "working on my machine". the dnd readout is located
inside [ol_dropfile]'s subpatch called [pd dropname].
i included all the files that are needed and where to put them. don't
know if it's working on OSX and/or linux (untested there ...)
hope this helps
best
