AFAIK, REBOL doesn't support COM interfaces so that might be a bit tricky.
If someone had lots of time and low level COM experience it could probably
be done. Euphoria has a COM library, so REBOL could probably support one
too. The question is: Is it worth it? :) For me, I'd rather spend time on a
DnD system that worked between REBOL apps on all platforms.
View/Pro and Command support a system port which they say can be used to
catch WM_ messages, but it isn't doc'd anywhere yet. With that you could at
least catch WM_DROPFILES to support DnD from Explorer.
