System name:		soup
Type and version:	RTPC-ROMPC 7.2D
Display type:		apa16

What were you trying to do?
	Test cut and paste in the console window

What's wrong:
	There are two problems; one a bug, the other a minor
	complaint.
	1.  (minor complaint) The mouse pointer should be an ibeam
	    when in the console window to indicate that text can 
	    be selected
 	2.  (bug) Only drag selection works; clicking the left
	    button on the start text and the right on the end
	    text does not work correctly.

What should have happened:
	I should be able to use either of the two above
	mentioned methods of selection.  Well, at least there is
	some cut and paste now, but this is still a loss of
	functionality since the last release and should be fixed.
