Subject: real-time mouse selection in vi 
 
When I use putty to ssh into a machine without screen running, when I vi a 
file, I can click and drag out a region of text in real time. Each subsequent 
character highlights as I move the mouse while the left mouse button is held 
down.
 
However, when I do the same thing but within screen, it takes a second click to 
highlight the text and it does not highlight the text in real-time.  The region 
highlights only after the second click.
 
Any idea how to get the real-time selection working within screen?
