A well-known alternative OS allows one to select using shift/cntl + arrow keys within compliant applications, then cut with cntl-x, copy with cntl-c, and paste with cntl-v. Is there anyway to set this up under X? From the man pages and the X-windows FAQ, it looks like the mouse is the only choice.
I use IceWM, no Gnome/KDE. My thanks to anyone who can help. Curt
