The terminal window lets you enter HP-UX commands
and cut and paste text between and within windows.
Cutting and Pasting Text |
 |
You can select text within one window and copy it to another location
within that window, or to another terminal window. The original text
is unchanged. If you want to delete it, you must do so manually. To
cut and paste in terminal windows, see “Cutting and Pasting Text into Windows”.
Note that cutting or pasting in Text Editor uses a different method (see
“Editing Text ”).
