What I meant is not for copying and pasting. Here's the scenario. I would like to select non-contiguous text in a large document to apply format and attribute changes at ones. For sighted user, they simply accomplish the task by holding down the control while selecting text from different parts of the document using the mouse pointer. I don't know if it is possible to do it solely with the keyboard.
