 NM> Hello guys, does anyone know how to copy and paste with
 NM> Linux+SyncTERM+Mystic? Thanks.

Theres an ANSI code that sysops can pass to SyncTERM users which sets mouse
support, but most sysops don't pass that code. Here are a few tricks to get
copy/paste working on stock [or unmodified] Mystic BBSes;

Press Alt+B to enter scrollback mode. When in scrollback mode, you'll notice
that selecting text using the mouse now shows a blue background - any text you
select is copied like normal.

To paste, make sure you're out of scrollback mode [Press Esc] and to paste
type Shift+Insert.

Does that help out? :P
