I use to mark and paste as described below: 1- Select a text and let it selected. 2- Go with mouse cursor to any place of line before the end of line. 3- Click with wheel, but without clicking before with left mouse. 4- It insert the text where is the mouse cursor. That is handy when working with programs.
