title: Scroll up/down while selecting multi-page block of text in Vim through putty
body: <p>I'm using vim 6.3.81 on a xterm through putty. When I use <code>set mouse=a</code> , I can scroll through the file , but not select text. When mouse is disabled using <code>set mouse=</code>, I can select text with mouse (automatically copied to a buffer) , but if the text block is over one page long , I can't scroll up/down (and have to select text one screen at a time) !!</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to have the best of both - while selecting text with mouse , if i reach the end of page , it automatically scrolls up/down depending on whether i've reached top/bottom of page and allows me to select text from the next page as well ?</p>
  
  <p>I know vim is powerful/flexible enough to do what I want - I just don't know how !! Can anyone help ?</p>
