Dragging Complete Text Editor Files

Text Editor files can be dragged and dropped onto any place in the DeskSet environment that accepts ASCII files. This operation is always done as a copy. To drag a complete Text Editor file:

  1. Press SELECT on the text glyph inside the drag and drop target.

    The text glyph is the figure inside the drag and drop target that represents the entire text file.

  2. Drag the pointer a short distance.

    A text file move pointer is displayed, as shown in Figure 3-12.

  3. Drag the pointer to the destination of the text and release SELECT.
