Re: IBM PCOMM - copy/paste doesnt work
Galaxy brain time, folks: There's an option in PCOMM that automatically copies whatever* to the clipboard. whatever* = anything you draw a bounding box over. Selection tool or whatever it's called. And there's a setting to not persist the display of the bounding box, after the above operation is done. No keyboard shortcuts necessary. - KB ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ On Tuesday, March 30, 2021 5:14 PM, Radoslaw Skorupka wrote: > W dniu 30.03.2021 o 11:45, Peter pisze: > > > Hello > > I am unable to.copy or paste within and to any outside application like > > notpad. > > When I do Alt +e+c and try to paste within or outside I get blank.

I met such problems, but it was related to Windows problems, not PCOMM itself. Especially when RDP is in use. BTW: I strongly suggest to customize keyboard : Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V instead of pulldown menu. Few hints: Use COPY (alt-e-c) without selecting anything on the screen. In such case whole screen should be copied. Try to select some text, regular text (without special chars) and paste. Try to use copy-paste from Notepad to PCOMM (inversely) Try to use copy-paste from PCOMM to PCOMM.

It happens to me with other emulators as well when the data contains unprintable character. It might be the reason.
