>If you just use Emacs for coding, you're not going to gain anything from running it in a GUI.
That's true only if you think pointing devices are useless for editing and navigating code.

Also, when you've selected some text with the pointing device, does Emacs sense the selection? I.e., does (list (region-beginning) (region-end)) return the start and end of the selection?
I didn't mean to suggest that pointing devices are completely useless in a terminal, but it has always been my experience that what the device can do is severely limited compared to graphical Emacs.
