Drag'nDrop is supported only within Cat'sEyE. You only can Drag'nDrop items and they are copied to the path where you drop them. This changed in version 3.1.1.0, where Drag'nDrop to and from other applications was added.

Predefined variables in different circumstances
Variable Source Object call mode value
<ThisDirectory> <TDIR> left/right view call="all" call="each" call="list" Directory the view currently shows.
<ThisDirectory> <TDIR> FileShelf call="all" Directory the first marked item is in.
<ThisDirectory> <TDIR> FileShelf call="each" call="list" Every item is called for itself -> The directory the currently processed item is in.
<OtherDirectory> <ODIR> left/right view call="all" call="each" call="list" directory the other view currently shows.
<OtherDirectory> <ODIR> FileShelf call="all" call="each" call="list" The users home directory.
<Home> <home> All call="all" call="each" call="list" The users home directory.
<MarkedItems> <MI> left/right view call="all" All marked items in one single line, without their path.
<MarkedItems> <MI> left/right view call="each" call="list" Only one item at a time, without path.
<MarkedItems> <MI> FileShelf call="all" All marked items in one single line, with their path.
<MarkedItems> <MI> FileShelf call="each" call="list" Only one item at a time, without path.
<MarkedItemsUnQuoted> <MI_UQ> left/right view Same as <MarkedItems>, but without quotes.
<MarkedItemsUnQuoted> <MI_UQ> FileShelf call="all" Only the last item in line, without quotes and path.
<MarkedItemsUnQuoted> <MI_UQ> FileShelf call="each" call="list" Only one item at a time, without path and quotes.
<MarkedItemsWithPath> <MIWP> All call="all" All items in one single line, including the path for each item.
<MarkedItemsWithPath> <MIWP> FileShelf call="each" call="list" Only one item at a time with path.
<MarkedItemsWithPath UnQuoted> <MIWP_UQ> All Same as above, but without any quotes.

Please mind, that using <MarkedItemsUnQuoted> in call="all" - mode is not very usefull as you may use spaces within the names of pathes and files. At least, this variable is not intended to be used with call="all", but with the other modes.

You may want an example, for this purpose put the lines you find in this file into your Cat'sEyEs configfile. This adds a menu called 'test' to your contextmenu, containing items which simply show a dialog where all predefined variables will be shown. There is no command-block, and therefore nothing will happen when you press OK.
