It's not a bug. You can select text with left click and scrolling with your mouse.

I do not think this is a bug, and it also happens when using other programs on the terminal emulator of Termux app. I think a plugin in micro where start and end of selection is pressed on screen can be made as workaround. I may write a comment again or create thread at https://github.com/zyedidia/micro/discussions sometime.

There are related issues like #35 and #1384, so I think this can be closed as a duplicate issue. I did not read the comments, but I think mouse hold events are not sent because it cannot be distinguished with scrolling.

This is possible but thinking about usage method and implementation is harder than I thought, so it's unlikely that I can make it within months.

I have also thought about adding actions in the plugin where splits can be resized using keyboard, but only the implementation of this is hard.
