The screen shouldn't be cleared

Research direction
No source file or test is named. First reproduce the copy operation under Windows codepage 936 and compare it with codepage 437, then locate the CLI's terminal selection and copy handling. Done means copying selected text no longer clears or resets the screen under the reported locale.
