What is that for, if anything at all?
It is a selection 'lasso' that should select any icons that you
encompass. Then you can do any of the usual things that you can do
to selected icons - drag, copy, delete, etc. Most other windows
should work the same way.
Coolness! It works in KDE, too. Ric
This is a joke post right? A 'funny' post ? A 'pull my leg' post? Maybe
even a 'giggle together in secret' post?
"a selection 'lasso'"?? You are all joking here right?
Why would you think that? It is a very reasonable description. Would the
term "grouping box" make it less of a joke?
