dragterm 1.1

Drag and drop from the command-line, updated to use modern API.

The tool itself is called “drag”, as that's a lot nicer to type than “dragterm”.

Usage

drag <files>

And drag the icon that appears under the mouse cursor.

Pressing Escape, q, Ctrl-C, or Ctrl-D, or moving the mouse far enough from the icon before dragging will cancel.

History

• 1.1
  • Uses the relative path as typed when displaying a “not found” error, instead of the full path.
  • Restored the ability to cancel with the Escape key (or q/Ctrl-C/Ctrl-D), without needing accessibility access.
  • Fixes a crash when passing an unrecognized option.
  • Prints usage to stderr instead of stdout when it's printed because of an error (vs. --help).
• 1.0.2
  • Increased drag-start area to 256 × 256.
  • Supports dragging files to the Trash.
  • Added --version and --help options.
• 1.0.1
  • Supports multiple files.
• 1.0
  • Initial release.

Notes

Starting a drag without a view (as https://github.com/ciaran/drag does) doesn't seem to work anymore, hence the transparent window appearing under the mouse (which should mostly behave the same).
