Enhanced E Editor - Drag and Drop

Sponsored Link:

The Enhanced E's now support:

  • Dropping text files onto the desktop icon to start the editor with the selected text file loaded.
  • Dropping text files on the edit window while the editor is running. When a file is dropped on the edit window you will be asked if you wish to save the previously loaded file before the newly dropped file is loaded. The editors will only accept complete "plain text" files that physically exist somewhere on your drive.
  • Dropping text from other locations inside the edit window causing it to be rearranged.

You may now also drag selected (highlighted) text to:

  • Another editor or application that accepts dropped text.
  • The printer object. Makes sending a file to a different printer or fax easier than changing to another driver. With the file loaded just click on "Select All" and drag the file to your selected printer object.
  • The desktop to save snippets of information in temporary files. Each file dropped on the desktop gets a unique temporary name (up to one thousand unique names) that you can rename whatever you please. TIP: An easy way to rename icons (and the filename with it) is to hold down the <alt> key while left clicking the mouse on the icon. After editing the title, click the mouse elsewhere on the desktop to close the icons' entry field and save the new name.
  • Another location inside the edit window to "Move" text from place to place or to "Copy" text (by holding the <Control> key down while dragging) to another location in the editing field.
