I didn't even know that you could unmaximise the windows. That'll
work just fine, thanks.

> I used to be able to do the following - First I'd load SCiTE text editor, then browse to a directory in a seperate Nautilus window and select a few files.  I could then drag these files up to top bar, hover over the SCiTE icon, which would cause the window to change to SCiTE, allowing me to release the mouse button and cause the files to open in seperate buffers for editing.  Now when you drag the files over the icon nothing happens.
