It should. Sometimes the first mouse click in a -nw session is misreported by Windows, so the first time you might need to click twice. If that doesn't work either, then either (a) you click on an area where a mouse click is not bound to any command, or (b) you have the "Quick Edit" option checked in the Properties of the command prompt window. In the latter case, uncheck it and try again. > Perhaps you have an answer for the real request, as well? No, sorry. (I don't really use the mouse for text selection.)
