[PATCH] Feature addition to selection extension (select to EOL)

[Jason McCarver]

All,

I've recently switched from Eterm to rxvt-unicode.  I like the
selection extension but miss having the selection go from the current
position to the end of the line.

I've added a similar selection feature to the already excellent
selection extension bundled with rxvt-unicode.  It may be enabled in
the config (it is disabled by default).

I freely admit to not being familiar with X, X resources, or urxvt
internals so there's every possibility this could be better.  But it
does seem to work for me and I'm happy with it so far :)
