I have to agree with you. Besides, what exactly do the developers
think they are saving? A quarter centimeter of mouse movement? I'd
rather have the double click select word and triple click select line
thing and *always* character by character drag selection.
The classic solution to this on Macintosh is that a drag that starts
with a double-click selects words at a time and a drag that starts
with a triple-click selects lines at a time.
I know this is old stuff, but after finding out how this works and
actually trying it for a while, I am sold. It works very well, it just
needs to be more prominantly advertised as I know I am not the only one
who didn't know about it until this thread.
