Stef, you'll find a thread I started on this subject on the newbie list. To
cut to the chase - there was no answer. Others users seem to be able to do it
just fine, but I can't either. I can use Klipper by highlighting what I need
in Eterm, then go to Klipper, click on that entry, go to where I want it, and
paste it there. Its an extra step, but I don't know why its like that for
some of us but not for others. Just out of curiosity, are you using the
download edition of 9.1? Thats what I'm using. I'm wondering maybe if its a
diff. between the download edition and the boxed set?
Never had this problem with the 9.0 boxed set.
