a) no idea what putty is ('cept the stuff you fill in nail holes with or the silly stuff) |
|
|
b) I constantly save my place with highlighting. On a long page, if I need to come back later I highlight the sentence I'm on. I'd hate to clear something important from my clipboard so easily. |

Silly Putty that you could press onto the screen and then it comes off with a mirror image of the screen text written on it would be cool. (Then you could press it onto paper for and it's like a printer.) |

BTW, what are we talking about? |

Putty is a friendly terminal emulator - I think it's called Putty because it apparently 'makes windows usable' or something like that - it's a unix geek thing. That aside, it does have this neat thing where anything highlighted with the mouse is instantly copied to the clipboard, and can be written to the current cursor position with a simple right-click action. It's pretty cool when you get the hang of it. |

Putty is also a pun on the abbreviation "TTY" (for "teletype") which was commonly used to refer to terminals. |

Would save one keystroke per operation. |

A keyboard macro (I don't use any such software so can't recommend any) that issued a ctrl+c then an alt+tab from a single key sequence ought to do a fair enough job of emulating what you want. |
