What do you mean for "regular selection"? Like the one of most terminals in Linux? As far as I know, it's not available in the Windows console. – Matteo Italia Jan 20 '10 at 23:09
I would really like this too. – Znarkus Feb 3 '11 at 15:54

Properties -> Options -> tick "QuickEdit Mode".

You might want to do the same in Defaults so it's like that every time.
