\section{\class{wxFileDataObject}}\label{wxfiledataobject}
wxFileDataObject is a specialization of \helpref{wxDataObject}{wxdataobject}
-for file names. Unlike other predefined wxDataObject derivations, it only works
-in one direction - the one of setting the data, i.e. the program can only
-receive files dropped on it using it and there is no way (currently) to
-initiate a drag and drop file operation.
+for file names. The program works with it just as if it were a list of absolute file
+names, but internally it uses the same format as
+Explorer and other compatible programs under Windows or GNOME/KDE filemanager
+under Unix which makes it possible to receive files from them using this
+class.
+
+{\bf Warning:} Under all non-Windows platforms this class is currently
+"input-only", i.e. you can receive the files from another application, but
+copying (or dragging) file(s) from a wxWidgets application is not currently
+supported. PS: GTK2 should work as well.
