Is there any way to change the manner in which my VAXstation 2000 running
DECwindows grabs text with the mouse?  Currently the mouse grabs full lines
of text.  Is there any way to grab a rectangle of text (ala Macintosh or
VWSwindows)?  I'd like to grab columns of text sometimes instead of always
full lines.

I appreciate any help you can give me.
