Running a Textual app puts your terminal in to *application mode* which disables clicking and dragging to select text.
|
|
Most terminal emulators offer a modifier key which you can hold while you click and drag to restore the behavior you
|
|
may expect from the command line. The exact modifier key depends on the terminal and platform you are running on.
|
|
|
|
- **iTerm** Hold the OPTION key.
|
|
- **Gnome Terminal** Hold the SHIFT key.
|
|
- **Windows Terminal** Hold the SHIFT key.

Refer to the documentation for your terminal emulator, if it is not listed above.
