Description greg hayes 2001-03-20 15:47:28 UTC 
when you use your mouse to select some text with a double click if the 
text is line wrapped you only get the text on the first line. The correct
behavior is demonstrated by Eterm, when you select a word with a double
click you get the text on both lines.

Confirmed in the latest release.
Comment 2 Kjartan Maraas 2002-08-17 11:48:43 UTC 
Triple click seems to select multiline sentences in xterm. This
doesn't work in gnome-terminal with libzvt-i18n branch.
