NULLS ON | OFF is the command to look for. With  NULLS ON "trailing 
blanks" on the line don't inhibit shifting in insert mode.

Type "PROF" on the editor command line to see other settings.

The "CUT" command is your key ("COPY" was given away long before the
clipboard was implemented in ISPF).

"CUT" line command in combination with "C", "CC-CC", "Cnn" line command
copies some lines into the default clipboard. "CUT APPEND" appends to 
current content. "CUT xyz" puts lines into named clipboard (xyz).
"CUT DISPLAY" lets you work with the clipboards (yes, there can be 
more than one).
