Receiving a Drop from QT/GTK

[maxlo]

Hello,

I am writing a Motiff app, and trying to receive a drop from either
konqueror or nautilus, but it seems that it is not possible.
I have tried xplore [1], a file manager written with Motif: it can
drag and drop *to* QT/GTK apps, but can not receive. Also, I found
similar statements in KDE (2.0... rather old, I know) documentation
[2].

So, I am still in doubt: is to possible for a Motif application to
receive drops from a QT/GTK applications?

Thanks in advance,
Maxi

I think gtk apps use either "text/plain" or "text/uri-list" -- you can
define X atoms for these, then add them to your list of targets.
Snd's snd-xdrop.c has example code (I just tested it with Nautilus).
