Re: Cygwin/Xterm scroll while selecting text

Hello
All:
I am sorry if this is a repeat question - I've searched for a while and haven't found anthing.


is there a way to get xterm to scroll up or down while selecting text, when the cursor hits the top/bottom of the window? Currently I am limited to one screen at a time, which is painful if I want to select a lot of data.

I am using cygwin 1.5.19-4, x11-base 6.8.2.0-1, xterm 202-1 on Win XP Pro.

right-mouse-button usually is setup to extend-selection (you can touch the scrollbars without losing the selection).
