Ken, "dragWindow" in SC is just a message sent ot the current window
when the window has been dragged using the titleBar. In Rev, this same
message is called "moveStack".

Note that in SC you get this message when you have finished dragging; in
Rev, you get the same message when you have finished dragging on the
Mac, but you get the message *continually* while you are dragging in
Windows. In either case, you get two parameters that come in as part of
the moveStack message that correspond to the top-left corner of the
stack window at its new location.

Just FYI,
