improvement - Drag and drop

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi! It would by nice if the window supported drag and drop. That is not the
crucial thing to do, but that would be nice!

Are you using any particular js-library (dojo, jQuery, YUI)? If you are -- it's 
a
one-liner? This feature can be a bit heavy on the code (if done from scratch),
especially that it will probably not be used that often (how many times would a
developer really need to drag/drop the log-window when he's in his 
groove/dev-mode?).

But sometimes you need to see what is behind the window, isn't it?
So I think in the debug mode, js file size shouldn't be a problem.

You can see what's behind the window... simply call log.move() or press 
F2+shift.

Drag-and-drop is a nice-to-have feature.  Maybe version 2...

Haha.  I can't believe that I came here and there was a comment just yesterday 
about Drag and Drop.  
Immediately the first thing I thought of when I saw this was "why can't I move 
it!?!?"  So, two hours and a lot 
of learning later I made a draggable version without including a library, just 
some straightforward slimmed 
down open source javascript:

The timestamp on my webserver shows I uploaded it => "17-Oct-2008 01:14"

I only added some Javascript which, after studying, I optimized for Blackbird:
http://bogojoker.com/dump/blackbird_drag.js

Changes:
1. Added an id to the upper portion "bbHandle"
2. Added a MiniDrag"class"
3. Attach the MiniDrag to the bbHandle to move the entire blackbird div

What do you think?

Awesome work, Joe! I completely take my words ("heavy on the code") back. Wow 
-- <50
lines for the whole functionality, unminified(!). My opinion is that it should 
be a
nice little plugin rather then a integral component, but its pretty cool 
nonetheless.
