Bug ID: 262090
Summary: vt newcons ignores the user-selected marking mode when
moving mouse/extending mark
Product: Base System
Version: Unspecified
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: kern
Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
Reporter: sblachm...@gmail.com
Let me explain:
Xorg has three marking modes:
-click+drag = character-wise marking: all characters from mousedown char to
mouseup char
-double-click+drag = word-wise marking: all words from mousedown word to
mouseup word
-triple-click+drag = line-wise marking: all lines from mousedown line to
mouseup line
In vt there seems to be missing a variable/flag which registers the marking
mode being chosen by the user.
When moving the mouse to extend the marked area, this results in mark_start and
mark_end to work incorrectly in word and line mode, effectively nixing the
word/line mark mode and entering the char mark mode.
