Don't use the mouse, you can copy&paste in screen via the keyboard. In general, hit ctrl-a <esc> to enter copy mode, navigate the cursor where you want to start copying, hit space, navigate to the end, hit space again and finally <esc> to leave copy mode. Then, hit ctrl-a ] to paste elsewhere. (This is not GNU/Hurd specific) Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
