The K Desktop Environment

3.3. Drag and Drop

Kpl supports the Drag and Drop protocol of KDE and Qt. This means that you can open one or more plot or data files by dragging their symbols onto the Kpl window. Data files will be recognized by the extension .dat, plot files by the extension .plo. In addition to local files also URLs may be passed in this way.

In case of more than one dropped file and activated setting Add Files all files are shown in one window, otherwise new windows are opened for each file.
