From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is a little tool I have made to ease the workflow of dragging files from the terminal without having to open a full file manager.

If you know dragon or ripdrag, this tool is pretty much the same but written in modern Qt6 instead of GTK.

Check out the README if you want to learn about some of the new extra features.

There also is a short demo in the release notes.
