Sometimes copying text from a console or DOS program's screen on a Windows PC can seem to be impossible. There is however an easy way to do this. Simply right click the title bar of
the program, click the 'edit' option that appears. then 'mark'. Now you should be able to highlight the text within the window. When you have done this, right click the
title bar again and then select 'edit' once more. This time however, choose 'copy' instead of 'mark'. Now you can paste the content you selected into other programs,
including Word.
