Selecting and Copying Text

Text can be selected (marked) then cut or copied into the Windows (or X11) clipboard. Selecting text works as for the standard for the window system in use. For Windows dragging while holding down the left mouse selects text. Alternately you can hold down the Shift key and move the cursor (via arrows or other cursor movement keys).

Once text is selected, you can use the Cut, Copy, and Copy as HTML commands in the Edit menu or on the right-click menu. You may then paste the text into other applications as needed. The Copy as HTML command allows you to paste formatted (colored) text into applications that accept HTML pasting.
