Can't select text inside a terminal

While testing selection features for spyder-terminal, we actually found that is not possible to select text displayed inside a xterm container, we actually performed tests on Firefox, Chrome and also Qt Webkit/WebEngine, without any success. We can’t use the features implemented on PR #670

We don’t know if we are missing some parameter at our xterm initialization routine: spyder-terminal/server/static/js/main.js

Details

• Browser and browser version: Firefox 54, Chrome 59
• OS version: Linux
• xterm.js version: 2.8.0

Steps to reproduce

1. Try to select text displayed inside a .terminal container

Yes! The CSS and JS sources were out-of-date, also we had some problems with Cache on Qt, but they are now solved

Does it have these styles?

.terminal .xterm-selection {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    z-index: 1;
    opacity: 0.3;
    pointer-events: none;
}

.terminal .xterm-selection div {
    position: absolute;
    background-color: #fff;
}
