When selecting text on a scrolled up window, the cursor will not let you drag past the bottom of the screen. Is there a config setting that I'm missing?

Nope. Due to speed optimizations, Console fetches only the text that is currently visible.
In earlier versions it was fetching the entire buffer, but that was CPU intensive and slow: imagine fetching a 1000 line buffer and showing only 25 or 50 of them. Very inefficent...

Not good. This is something that I use quite a bit. I would not think that grabbing the entire buffer would be the right thing to do. If I had the time, I might be able to mod the code. Otherwise, I might be able to do something using Autohotkey perhaps.

Perhaps there could be a user configurable amount of lines to fetch. Then if the user has a machine capable of handling it, they can set it to do so.
Maybe default to two screenfuls.

Well, I can't say enough good things about "console". It's totally *cool*! I use it constantly and on serveral machines.
I did end up writing a Autohotkey script to unhide/rehide the dos window, and copy the contents to the clip board in a split second, but it would also be easy enough to just do it manually.
Thanks again for such a really cool app!

I'll add this as a ToDo item for Console v2.0. I'll be doing a lot of architectural changes in the next major version and I can take all feature requests like this into account when designing stuff...
Right now, it would probably require hacking around the code, and I'm affraid it would end up hurting performance too much, or making only some kind of a partial solution.
