[R] select text using only the keyboard

[Paul Livingstone]

I am using R 1.6.1 on Windows.  I usually write/edit code in the R console,
and when I get it working right, copy and paste it to a text file for later
use.  In Splus for Windows, this could be done easily using just the
keyboard, with up-arrow, shift-end or shift-home, ctrl-c, etc.  

But in R, the shift key doesn't select text.  The only way I can select text
in R is with the mouse.  Does anyone know how to select text in R using only
the keyboard?

Many thanks,
Paul.
