There are several ways to do this, here is one:
make a .bat file that says this:
"c:\program files\python\python.exe" c:\temp\drag.py %1
use the correct path to your python.exe. replace drag.py with your
script name.
make a shortcut on your desktop that points to your .bat file.
use sys.argv[1] to get the name of the file to be acted on.
For example, this script:
import sys
a = sys.argv[1]
print a
will return the name of the file dragged onto the icon.
Hope this helps
