Block selection #302

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
It would be nice to have optional block selection, like in standard windows 
console. It can be useful for copying text from some program that splits window 
into vertical panes, like tmux or some log viewers, or for copying text without 
line numbers from vim or copying file list from something like mc.

Just hold down Alt while selecting to do this. (It's the same in many Windows 
programs.)

Oh, thanks! I've googled and didn't find anything, but today I've remembered 
about `man mintty` and there it was, in the Copy&Paste section. Sorry, I should 
have read the manual before.
