I found some options here: http://www.varesano.net/blog/fabio/disable%20vim%20automatic%20visual%20mode%20using%20mouse Still I could not find a way to globally disable visual mode altogether, which I never use. The only option for me is to do a :set mouse-=a every time I start the editor. Putting the set mouse-=a in vimrc created all sorts of strange errors. My point is that I was happy with vim until yesterday. An automatic vim package upgrade should not change default behavior. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
