# Dropit
A lightweight, GTK-based drag-and-drop panel meant to be used with command-line file managers.

## Installation
To install this project, run the following.
```
meson setup build
sudo ninja -C build install
```

If you only want to build the project, but not install it on your machine, run the following.
```
meson setup build && ninja -C build
```
This will create the executable file 'dropit' in the build directory.

## Usage
After installing the program, the program can be run with `dropit {...FILES}`, where the argument is a list of files for which the drag-and-drop panel is created. You may provide the command line option "-a" or "--autoclose" to automatically close the application after a drag-drop operation.

## Build Requirements
- GTK >= 4.8.0
- meson
