Boy you guys are great at helping out the new guy! I was just tired of
fighting with the DOS windows my fat finger typing was causing me to
much :[EMAIL PROTECTED] Putty is what I'm used to so it is working great!
You can tell PuTTY to behave Windows-like or xterm-like with the mouse
buttons so depending on how it is setup, either may work.
Check 'Windows' -> 'Selection'
I think that is off topic for a Cygwin list, but still useful maybe.
