Apple clearly changed something. In Tiger, a drag command for "vcf"
files that was simply 'echo $TM_DROPPED_FILE` would insert some
temporary file name when invoked by dragging a card directly from AB.
Presumably, that temporary file was the reason the drag command
worked. Maybe Leopard has "streamlined" things to where the temporary
file is no longer made.

Frankly, I was surprised when dragging a card from AB to TM worked in
Tiger. I'll just have to decide on another way of transferring the
information.
