SET BOX NOSELECT
(Default.) Disables box-style selection, cutting, and pasting. Commands
such as SELECT, COPY, REMOVE, and so on, use standard, linear ranges.
Usage notes:
o To select a box, use BOX SELECT (see help on Ranges And Boxes).
o If you enable box selection, then SELECT, REMOVE, STORE TEXT, and
INSERT HERE are the same as BOX SELECT, BOX CUT, BOX COPY and BOX PASTE
---for example, any key defined as REMOVE works like BOX CUT without
having to be redefined.
o SET BOX NOSELECT is a global attribute, applying in all buffers. To
save your setting for future editing sessions, use SAVE ATTRIBUTES to
create a section file or to create or update a command file. See help
on Attributes.
