Can I Drag and Drop?

I've successfully installed a couple of programs that I'd like to use; Foobar2000 and ReNamer. They both run fine even though they're not in the AppDatabase but I'm unable to drag and drop audio files into them, which pretty much makes them useless.

I've googled and run across people asking similar questions without seeing any definitive answers. Is there a solution, or is it just not possible to drag a file from the Mac Desktop to program running through Wine?

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Wine 1.5.5
XQuartz 2.7.2
MacPorts 2.1.1
Mac OSX 10.6.8

there is no support between Finder and Wine... drag and drop usually doesn't do anything.

There is some support depending on how an app works if you use Wineskin though, but thats a 3rd party program and not supported here.

Thanks for the information. I've been investigating Wine, Winebottler, Crossover and Macindows and not being able to drag and drop is a deal breaker. I may need to look in to something like Parallels if WineSkin doesn't work out. Thanks for the help!
