I copy it from the screen into FM as raw text with Paste Special >
Text with a para at the end of each line. If it has too many tabs, you
can do a find-and-replace to clean them out or convert to multiple
spaces.
Then convert it to a single column table, one line per cell.
The para tag for each cell is a 6 or 7 point monospace font, such as Courier.
