 This path contains test code for the new XEmacs
 Drag'n'Drop code.
 
-Currently only drops are of interest. The internal
-functions should work for OffiX, CDE, and MSWindows.
+To test the code do the following:
+1) call 'bash droptest.sh' to create the test files in /tmp
+2) load and eval droptest.el in XEmacs
+3) Try to do some internal DnD by using the sources and targets
+   in the new buffer
+4) Do some external DnD:
+   4a) OffiX: use files and editor of OffiX
+              drag something from files or editor into XEmacs
+              drag something from XEmacs to xv (only with OffiX patch,
+              editor or files -- files can only move and copy within
+              itself, cause OffiX is not quite the right thing to do)
+   4b) CDE: use dtfile and dtpad instead, but here everything should
+            work.
+   4c) MSWindows: well, explorer should do. But only file data
+                  should work, and I don't know if the test
+                  already handles this.
 
 The misc-user-event now also responds as a button-x-event
 to the event-* query functions.
