title: How to select text with the mouse without going into insert mode
body: <p>I used to be able to select text with my mouse in Vim, and then hit <kbd>x</kbd> to cut it. Now, when I do that, it does cut the text to my clipboard like before, but it also inserts a single <code>x</code> character at the point of cutting, which did not occur in the past. It seems like selecting text with the mouse puts me into insert mode, so that my subsequent hitting of <kbd>x</kbd> does cut the text to my clipboard, but also inserts a single <code>x</code> ASCII character.</p>
  
  <p>I recently changed my machine, and thus lost my _vimrc (Windows) file. I probably had some key remapping in my old _vimrc to accomplish what I want, but no longer have access to that file.</p>
  
  <p>Something similar happens if I select text with my mouse and hit <kbd>d</kbd>. The text is cut to my clipboard, and a single <code>d</code> character is inserted, and I am in text insert mode.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know what line to add to my _vimrc (.vimrc) to create the behavior so that when I select multiple lines of text with my mouse and hit <kbd>x</kbd>, it will cut the text to my clipboard, not insert any text in place, and leave me in command mode?</p>
  
  <p>My <code>mouse</code> setting is set to <code>mouse=a</code>.</p>
