	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.

(1.) will be fixed; I forgot about that.
(2.) The functionality you mention is implemented. It works properly
     for me.

I do not know of any real functionality losses.
