Description Dmitry Kovba 2002-10-10 17:26:46 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.3)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs

Select any text in konsole with mouse - gray color of selection. Work properly.
Select text in MC editor run under console with mouse - ~green color of selection . It is the same selection as with F3 key using. You cann't press Ctrl+Ins to remember this text. You can only operate with it in MC.
Please make mouse selection in MC under konsole the same as in other places (to work with global buffer)

mcedit is a console application, no X11 application. The selection you see is 
handled by mcedit, not Konsole, so it's no surprise it doesn't interact with 
the X11 selection buffers. 
Don't expect console application to behave 100% like running in console when 
running in a terminal emulator or even like an X11 application.
