Now that I know it's in xterm, I looked up man xterm and got the syntax from there. Was wondering how to do just that for weeks and didn't have a clue what caused the change.

Re: how to change mouse select behavior?
It's xterm. I'm referring to double-clicking on 1233:03030-30303 and it'll select the whole 1233:03030-30303 instead of 1233 Thanks, Jeff On Tue, 7 Mar 2006, Thomas Dickey wrote: On Wed, 8 Mar 2006, Jeff Chua wrote: I noticed a few weeks ago with the CVS source, double-click on hte left mouse can select a whole word, then the feature disappeared. which application?

I commented out that line (near the end of the file) and added in xterm's code (but did not configure in the app-defaults file) support for regular expressions. There is a comparable example using regular expressions to select URLs at the bottom of the app-defaults file, also commented-out. The motivation for the change in #208 was to support clicking on URLs - several people did not want that in the default configuration. Using charClass for this was also not satisfactory since it would also select strings such as you indicate, and did not take into account the number of clicks. When testing, I assigned the URL pattern to triple-clicking, and for the moment had forgotten that charClass applies to double-, triple-clicks equally...
