dnd-protocol-alist and org

Hi list,

I've been trying to get dnd-protocol-alist to work on Emacs 23, OSX (GNU
Emacs 23.4.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.36) of 2012-01-29
on bob.porkrind.org) but couldn't so far. Has anyone got it to work with
Cocoa Emacs?

I think this could be used to implement some real cool features, such as
dragging-and-dropping->auto-archiving of images and other file types. This
way, one could, for example, drag an image into an org buffer, and it would
be copied to a pre-configured location and displayed auto-magically. What
do you think?

Cheers,

Marcelo.

In addition to that: An even more awesome feature would be to hook into the
pasting process in emacs, get that data, save that to a pre-defined
location, and link it in the org buffer. Imagine copying an image from
anywhere and being able to insert it in the org buffer with just a paste
command! :)

*bump* Does anyone else think that'd be a nice feature? I'm having a hard
time making dnd-protocol-alist work on OSX though, any hints appreciated :)

AFAIU this is a general Emacs question, maybe you'll have more chance on
emacs-devel.

Yeah, I've tried there, but no luck. In fact, I thought it'd be
interesting/relevant enough to org in order to post here. Integration with
dnd and copy and paste for files and images would be awesome and put org on
par with Evernote in this regard.

I mean, it's so much faster and more intuitive to just paste images or
files into a document (or drag and drop them) than it is to org-attach them
or link them manually :)
