What kind of bright idea was it to mess around with a Notes window
while on SETHOST in a terminal window, so that you can't select text
with the mouse and copy/paste???
Now there is the silly option to scroll through a note with a mouse
click instead of the usual CR, to compensate.

You'll have to ask the VAX NOTES developers, who have a conference at CLT::VAXNOTES_BUGS. I'd phrase the question in a bit more civil fashion, as well. --PSW | |||||

Re: .0 The problem is that either Notes or TPU enables ANSI locator reports, which means that mouse clicks go to Notes or TPU instead of activating DECterm's local selection mechanism. If you want to use local selection (copy and paste) give the command TPU SET (MOUSE,OFF). -- Bob | |||||

Using the "Reset Terminal" option in DECterm works too, but turns off
the keypad as well. A cntrl-W restores everything.
