! The @kbd{w} command (@code{dired-copy-filename-as-kill}) puts the
  names of the marked (or next @var{n}) files into the kill ring, as if
! you had killed them with @kbd{C-w}.  With a zero prefix argument
! @var{n}=0, use the absolute file name of each marked file.  With just
! @kbd{C-u} as the prefix argument, use the relative file name of each
! marked file.  As a special case, if no prefix argument is given and
! point is on a directory headerline, @kbd{w} gives you the name of that
! directory without looking for marked files.
! 
! The main purpose of the @kbd{w} command is so that you can yank the
! file names into arguments for other Emacs commands.  It also displays
! what was pushed onto the kill ring, so you can use it to display the
! list of currently marked files in the echo area.

! protocol.  You can drag a file object from another program, and drop
! it onto a Dired buffer; this either moves, copies, or creates a link
! to the file in that directory.  Precisely which action is taken is
! determined by the originating program.  Dragging files out of a Dired
! buffer is currently not supported.
