	Ah...  I don't do that much cutting and pasting on a grand 
scale.  For that I sometimes "cat file >> otherfile", using the shell's 
append ability, or vi's multiple window/buffering capabilities.  I wish 
Linux had a decent clone of WordStar Professional.  vi is pretty 
powerful, but not very touch-typist friendly.

	I'm waiting for them to link Orca with SpeakUP's cut-n-paste 
buffer.  I'm always looking up things in edbrowse and needing to copy 
URLs to the GUI, thanks to the clueless. sighted, I-need-a-Fisher-Price 
- mentality-level-computer-interface-with-pretty-pictures crowd.
