From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yes, if you already know that you can drag and drop between unrelated programs, it will work like you expected it.
If you don't know it, you can pick it up by looking over the shoulder of your friend or co-worker, or you can read articles like this.
You can also just give it a try, like most of us, but hey, who am I to judge.
