Cutting and pasting on Linux has two versions.The 'clipboard' and the x
windows cut.
To use X windows cut and paste simply highlight the text (left click drag)
and the text will be highlighted.
In the second window middle mouse click will paste the contents of the X
windows highlight. (assuming it is not overridden in software somewhere)

Subject: [SLUG] Copying mc (midnight commander text) to local clipboard
I have to ssh to a remote machine.
Then I use Midnight Commander for editing. It's pretty much what I like
but ..
.. Anybody know how to copy text to the local clipboard. It over-rides the
ssh clipboard. I want to cut + paste between ssh windows.
