Hi Keith and everyone, Sightees using the console would use 'gpm' and their mouse. They just drag the mouse across the text to highlight it and then paste it (again with the mouse) into the place they want it, same console, another console, whatever. I'm sure there are similar facilities in X, but I don't know. HTH, --terry You wrote: -=> Thanks for the ton of responses on this issue. I knew it hd to be something -=> obvious.
