When you copy text with your mouse, and only select one letter, it doesnt copy it, which it should, as i think.. is this something that is meant to be there or a bug?
using mirc 6.03, and yea, i think this occured in earlier version too..

Yes, it has been like that as long as I can remember.

I don't know if it's a bug or not, but I can imagine it helps people from accidentally copying stuff when clicking on a hotlink, channel, nickname... etc. Especially older people who can't hold their mouse still while they double-click, and end up selecting a character. smile

It most liekely has to do with how Khaled had to manually write the selection code for copying. Maybe a bug, or an undocumented feature..

If it's a feature, i'd like to see an option to disable it.
