Have a look at the gpm package on the install discs.
Is it possible to cut /to paste from a virtual console to other?
I don't know, but I doubt it. Someone here will have the full sp. Dylan -- "Sweet moderation Heart of this nation Desert us not We are between the wars" Billy Bragg

See the manual page of gpm.

Yes, from one VC to the other works. Select the text with the left mouse button, switch to another VC (alt-F3 for example), and paste the text with the middle mouse button. If you have a two-button mouse, use the right button to paste text. Paul.

I was under the impression (and actual use) that the answer is to press the left and right mouse buttons simultaneously to paste text. Has this changed? --doug

In the past, I have used that too. Nowadays I have a three button mouse, so I cannot tell you from experience if it really has changed. The text above is from the gpm man page: "Two-button mice use the right button to paste text.". Paul.
