Nope not if your just on the command line, you can run screen which has
a clipboard as well as a boat load of other features. Or you can use
nano to highlight what you want and write it out to a file that you can
do whatever with. Screen is probably what you want though. It has a good
manual so I won't try to explain it all here.

Wow I just saw my grasp of english go out the window with message, I
started a sentence with a conjunction and ended one with a preposition.
Anne won't be happy with me. *smile*
