Not sure this is what you mean ... when viewing text on a terminal
window ...
high desired text
copy with <Ctrl-Shift-C>
... to paste into a text file using vim ...
enter insert mode in the manner appropriate to the situation
paste with <Ctrl-Shift-V>
... to paste into a GUI application such as OpenOffice Writer ...
paste with <Ctrl-v>
Hope that helps
Regards
Fred James
PS: with some terminal windows there is a drop down edit menu that
includes the copy/paste functions
