Humm, the standard way is double click == select word, triple click ==
select line, quadruple click == select all text (not all apps allow that
though).
Gnome and the console just work like that, and so does Xfce. Nothing
different here. Maybe a difference in the double click timeout
(settings->Mouse settings->Double click speed)
Cheers,
Olivier.
