Does anyone happen to know about the messages that FileMan sends/receives
when you "drag a file" to another app (like ProgMan)?  At least some of the
following defines from windows.h seem to be relevant:

#define WM_DROPOBJECT       0x022A
#define WM_QUERYDROPOBJECT  0x022B
#define WM_BEGINDRAG        0x022C
#define WM_DRAGLOOP         0x022D
#define WM_DRAGSELECT       0x022E
#define WM_DRAGMOVE         0x022F

There are also a bunch of WM_USER+x messages I see passed around when I use
Spy.  None of this seems to be documented in the SDK.  Is there any
documentation on these messages, or has anyone slugged though and figured
them out?  Any help would be appreciated!
