Description

Sets the drag action handler.
Specify a filename and script name to have this script being called when a drag operation drops something on the window. This gives you the possibility to process the data.
The script parameter will be the drop area reference.

With plugin version 6.0 or newer the script name can be a script ID number. In that case the plugin queries the script name for the given script ID. This allows to call scripts by ID and avoid problems if scripts are later renamed.
