No disrespect intended as I'm sure none was meant, but maybe a bit more context... Dawn of the millennium. Scroll-wheel-mice have been a thing for some years. I'm sitting there on Windows98, one hand alternating between chips and a beverage of choice, the other on the mouse as I read yet another article on Linux, which I ultimately make my operating system of choice for the new century as the best alternative to installing what after doing my research I had come to call eXPrivacy due to the then new MS authorization techniques. I'm absent-mindedly quick-double-click-select-marking/reading/scrolling/selecting/reading my way down the article, my mind on Linux... That quick-double-click-select-mark usage has lasted since well before the turn of the century thru countless mice/pointing-devices, two major operating systems and multiple versions/distros of each, across browsers, news and email clients, desktop-environments, switching Windows->xfree86->xorg->wayland, down to the present, where I'm still using it in konsole to scroll thru thousands of lines of kernel git logs or (as above) hundreds of live-git-update packages. The OSs/GUI-platforms/desktops/environments/apps and now hopefully temporarily necessary commit-revert patches to apps change, while the select-mark/scroll/read/select-mark usage, endures. Why would I complicate it by adding repeatedly typing one-shot-find text into an otherwise read/select/scroll-only window in ordered to update otherwise-random-text one-shot markers, when a simple double-click and scroll serves the purpose? Oh, and by the way (shaking my cane), get off my grass! I'm feeling old-and-set-in-my-ways now. Or is the term "experienced"? =:^) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
