Re: Module skinning

:)  I didn't realize you had someting called "skinbox".  I'll have to search for another name.   I did download your skinbox a couple of days ago now, and it looks pretty nifty.  But it is missing a lot of files, so it has no chance of compiling.  Seems to be some common files you have in another directory and isn't in the archive.  I don't remember which right now though.

Finally took a look at rabidvwm as well.  Wow what a piece of code. :P   The first thing I ripped was the ole drop target.  I had just found a need for that, so will have to give it a try.

And now to hijack my own thread and go offtopic... Does anyone have a simple class or something that handles transfering of files (copy/move/link) when given a source and destination.  Basically I'm trying to implement a more robust drag and drop for jDesk, but I don't have easy access to resources explaining how to do all of that and such.  The drag & drop part isn't a big deal, its the file management part that I need. Please let me know if you do, and where I can snag it from. :)
