Personally, I rarely define new words in the interpreter, but just develop parts of them or mess around with things until I figure out the desired steps. Once I do figure out those steps, I just write them directly in the file that I have open, and then use refresh-all as I mentioned above. Most word definitions are at most a couple of lines long, so I never found it an inconvenience to copy them over by hand, but perhaps this could be a feature request. One option, if you do want to get a word definition to the clipboard (although it takes three steps, not one), is to right-click the definition in the listener, select Input, then you can just do a Ctrl-A to select the definition and copy and paste it as usual.
