[orca-list] How to copy pieces of text from a gnome-terminal window

[Christophe Delaunay <christophe delaunay-ext ariadnext com>]

Hi all,


If the portion of text I'm interested in is a command I just typed, I 
can edit the .bash_history.


If the text I want is a large piece of output, I can redirect the output 
and errors of the command before submitting it and then edit the 
resulting file to select the wanted text and copy it.


If the wanted text is part of a whole session, I run the commands I want 
in a screen session with logging turned on.


But is there a way to select text directly from inside the terminal 
window and copy it please?


Many thanks in advance. Have a nice day. Chris D
