Telnet - Copying and pasting?
 

is it possible to copy and paste stuff from, say, a telnet session?


e.g. can you copy and paste from a DOS box?

Yes.
You usually just highlight the text and right click to copy it to the clipboard.

Procedure is slightly different for a dos box.

What you need to do is with the dos window open with the tel session is left click on the c prompt icon in the top left, select edit, then mark then drag the cursor over the text so it highlights in white.

Then left click on the c prompt icon in the top left again and select copy.

Then wherever you want to paste it to right click and select paste.

:D

Just to add to this.... when you have highlighted the text, pressing enter will copy it as well ;)
