The Ultimate Request: Control-C, Control-X, and Control-V

Yes -- Copy/Cut/Paste.

Is it possible? You'd think with all the recent uberness in the MQ coding repertoire, something like this could be doable ..and talk about useful!

Hell, EQ would be stupid not to copy it if we did figure a good way to do it.

Yes possible. I could at least do paste but no idea about cut/copy from eq

I know you can shift-highlight text (but not do anything besides delete)... maybe detour that?

Can you? I'll look into that.

yes but only if you are currently typing it (ie active input box).

it wont work for text already sent/recieved.

Paste with pause would own :)

I'm not sure how you could select the text to copy from a chat window without losing the ability to click-through the window. I think I'd rather click-through.

could add a new key for it.

if ctrl is pressed then the windows arent clicktrhoughable, if it isnt, they are.
