I just had a bug (think i was editing macros when it happened) where the mouse wouldn't select text or move the caret. Restart fixed it.
I'd closed the edit macros window. It's only happened once.

The problem (most likely) was that you were still in 'record macro' mode.
There is an indicator in the lower right corner, but I should probably give some sort of feedback when trying to use the mouse in this situation :)
I would also like to visually indicate when the user has enabled freehanded editing. Ideas are welcome!
freehand editing? wossat?
I like the notification for macro recording mode. Nice and unobtrusive. Probably that's what it was.

It's in Edit / Mode together with overwrite mode.
It makes the editor ignore line feeds and tabs, so you can freely move around the caret past end of line or “inside” tabs. This is useful when “drawing” stuff in the editor or editing column-formatted data (i.e. so you don't need to add the spaces when adding a new column or have tabs be in your way).
But some people accidentally activate this mode (it toggles on cmd-0) and are then puzzled by the non-standard editing behavior ;)
