# SelectTextAtMouseCursor Initiates selection of text at the current mouse cursor position. The mode argument can be one of `Cell`, `Word` or `Line` to control the scope of the selection. *Since: 20210203-095643-70a364eb* The mode argument can be `SemanticZone` which causes the selection to take the surrounding semantic zone. In this example, the triple-left-click mouse action is set to automatically select the entire command output when clicking on any character withing that region: ```lua return { mouse_bindings = { { event={Down={streak=3, button="Left"}}, action={SelectTextAtMouseCursor="SemanticZone"}, mods="NONE" }, }, } ``` [See Shell Integration docs](../../../shell-integration.md) for more details on how to set up your shell to define semantic zones.
