The key-enter trigger doesn't work. I have also tried. I believe someone wrote to the newsgroup weeks ago explaining that key-enter is used by block-mode terminals (as in IBM 3270).

Don't know--have you tried defining them with Oracle Terminal? (Good
luck, you will probably need it.)

Haven't tried, but it should. Using a combination of when-mouse-down,
when-mouse-enter and when-mouse-up triggers, one should be able to
allow a user to drag items from one block to another.
