No, strictly speaking Ctrl+Insert is copy (Ctrl-C equivalent),
Shift+Insert is paste (Ctrl-V equivalent) and Shift+Delete is cut
(Ctrl-X equivalent). They work most of the time, for example in Firefox
2. They work many times in the Windows world, too. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290938/en-us, for example.  Ctrl+Insert
is used in MS Windows XP to copy error message;
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/889887. (BTW by middle clicking mouse in
X you can paste selected text even if it is not copyed by some extra
command.)

You can use Ctrl+Intsert in text input fields of Xarchiver, so I don't
see a reason why it shouldn't work in other situations, where you can
select text. Aren't there  any common guidelines for linux software user
interface creators.?
