If that's your thing, terminal emulators have had support for that for years. Vim and NeoVim both have support for it too.


Just tried drag-and-drop in my gnome-terminal. Didn't work.


What part of "click and highlight and drag things around" includes "drag and drop"? I'm not going to comment on drag-and-drop as being a useful feature (I don't consider it one), but it wasn't mentioned in GP.


I guess it's possible that GP meant "drag things around without any effect".


Drag and drop's pretty neat I reckon. Pretty nice when things tie into the native APIs in OS X so you can even drag snippets of text between applications. Pretty sure people would have shat their pants when they first saw that working in NextStep - it's nice not to break it.
