See dired-mouse-drag-files. Do you mean this below? It does not work, or I do not know how to do it. I am using touchpad and left mouse button. dired-mouse-drag is an interactive byte-compiled Lisp function in ‘dired.el’. (dired-mouse-drag EVENT) Begin a drag-and-drop operation for the file at EVENT. If there are marked files and that file is marked, drag every other marked file as well. Otherwise, unmark all files. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M. Stallman https://stallmansupport.org/
