There's no sense in dropping a file onto the console area, is there?
I mean, nothing that gretl could reasonably do with a file of any
kind in that context.
but I'm also seeing that the cursor (mouse pointer) changes into
the "drop here" mode, as if it were allowed. But then nothing
happens. (Dropping into the usual main window area still works
fine.)
On Linux, if you attempt to drop something into the gretl console
you see it "fly back" to where it came from, a clear visual
indication that it's not going to work. Not sure about macOS,
hopefully I can try it soon.
