Cutting and pasting between programs is easy.
(and requires *no* memory at-all)
Just cut from program A and save to a file on disk.
Now just paste that file into program B.
That's how I did it with the directory listing of
d:\audio\mod\cp251\doc\*.htm which I pasted-into a previous message.
At the dos prompt....
dir d:\audio\mod\cp251\doc\*.htm>l:\docs.txt
And then while editing the message, used F3 to paste-in l:\docs.txt
It's simple.
It's straight-forward.
It works. (perfectly) :-)
