Hi,

I've recently found the tmux mode-mouse, which is pretty cool.

On my OSX machine, this allows me to use scroll gestures to read back
through the scrollback buffer.

It's much easier than using Ctrl-B, [, then using the arrow keys to go back
line by line.

However, I've noticed that when mode-mouse is enabled, copy-paste no longer
seem to work. As in, if I try to select some text with the mouse, as soon
as I let go, it de-selects that text:

I've read through the following links:

I'd like to clarify - the behaviour in mode-mouse where you are unable to
select text (i.e. it de-selects it as soon as you let go of the mouse) - is
that normal intended behaviour?

Is there any way at all to select text with mode-mouse on for copying?

Thanks,
Victor
