Ken,
Thank you for the reply. What you have written is what I believed still
to be the case.
However, I was intrigued by the following comment from Bart Oldeman
announcing 1.4.0.1:
"Improved copy and paste of text to and from DOSEMU."
But this is not explained further.
Victor Warner.

You can't directly. My workaround is to copy the text to a DOS text
file, such as the WordPerfect text editor, open that file in a Linux
text editor, such as Kedit, and then insert that file in the desired
Linux application.
As you can see the workaround is quite cumbersome. I have many
important texts written when I was still using WordPerfect 5.1, parts of
which I want to incorporate in documents created in OpenOffice, which I
now use as my primary word processor. The workaround described is how I
manage the transfer.
