I've been searching for a while on this one and the only answers I can dig up are "use X11"…so I thought I would bring it to the experts. Is there a way to configure mouse gestures/actions in the OS X Terminal app such that single-clicking on text copies the text to the clipboard?

I'm not aware of a way to do it with the built-in Terminal app, but this is a feature that some terminal replacement apps, like iTerm 2, support.
