Quoting mlterm(1) :
-W --sep=characterlist
Delimiter characters used for word selection, which are con‐
sulted when you double-clicked mlterm, to define what is a word.
The default is " ,.:;/@")
Somewhat similar to XTerm's -cc . Sadly (at least IMHO), it seems that
most other terminals (rxvt included) don't follow xterm here.
