Hi people,
I'm using SSH from a windows box onto an FC4 machine. How can I copy and
paste things? I want to be able to copy out of nano, and paste onto the
command line. Is there a centuralized clip board file? Like Windows? I was
thinking (not one of my usual things to do ;-)), if there wasn't it would be
a nice feature, just stick the clipboard into something like ~/.clipboard;
that way it would be recallable every time you logged in.
Cheers,
Chris Norman

Nope not if your just on the command line, you can run screen which has
a clipboard as well as a boat load of other features. Or you can use
nano to highlight what you want and write it out to a file that you can
do whatever with. Screen is probably what you want though. It has a good
manual so I won't try to explain it all here.

Anne won't be happy with me. *smile*

yes you can copy from the command lign thow it is hard if you don't toy around with it to know how to do it
first copy the stuff you want to paste to the clipboard
then go to your command lign window
then do alt+space to pring up the system menue
then hit down arrow till you find the edit sub menue
open this by hitting the enter key
under edit there is cut copy paste ETC.
sence you are going to paste do paste
the menue will close you will be back at your command prompt
and you can use your jaws curser to read the screen and make shore
you pasted it where you wanted it.
