Its been quite awhile since my last visit here. I have forgotten how to do a simple keyboard copy-paste procedue. I know I highlight the prefered text but forgot what key I hit to paste. This is the best method for pasting terminal commands so you dont mistype a command. Thank You Rick

Ctrl+Shift+C = Copy from terminal.
Ctrl+Shift+V = Paste to terminal.
Remove Shift for non-terminal windows.

Pasting highlighted in terminal text can be done via middle mouse click (that's scroll wheel on mouse, right+left click together on touchpad) or via Shift+Insert(Ins) key combination. Aside from that, one can also copy text with CtrlInsert(Ins).
Highlighted text+middle click optin works well between terminal-nonterminal windows.
