   You can also mark text without dragging in both terminals.

>From the rxvt manual:
       Selection:
              Left click at the beginning of the region, drag  to
              the  end  of the region and release; Right click to
              extend the  marked  region;  Left  double-click  to
              select  a  word;  Left  triple-click  to select the
              entire line.
