I'd like to set up the console, so the default properties allow me to
use text completion, 120 character with by 200 deep lines, allow text
completion and allow me to copy from the black window? What do I need to
do? Some part of this has to do with Quick Edit, which is probably to
turn it off.

Thanks for the link. I couldn't find a way to get "Mark" from a menu.
