if you created the selection using the keyboard rather than the mouse then you can't make the selection go away with the keyboard - you have to use the mouse.
How bizarre.
How does one create a selection with the keyboard on a Mac? And how does one make the selection go away in other apps? What happens when you do that in Aquamacs -- it extends the selection anyway?
I only know the Windows behaviour (Shift+arrow creates or extends a selection; unshifted arrow keys make it go away).
