Patrick - Glad that helped. I find myself working with Unix-like OS most of the time, and I'm very accustomed to the XWindows "use the middle mouse button to copy highlighted selection" behavior. I've noticed that some applications don't support this behavior - BaseX GUI is one of them - and I think the commonality is Java... Swing (? at least as I type this I think that Swing is the commonality).
Best, Bridger PS Does MS Windows support this kind of thing? I'm not sure - I don't have a Windows machine handy....

Bridger,
You're right!
I has copy setup on highlighting and that doesn't seem to work, but your suggestion does.
Thanks!

Hi Patrick -
I was able to copy (ctrl-c) out of the Result window and paste into Emacs with ctrl-y. Is that not working for you?
Best, Bridger

Hello, I tried to copy a string out of results with the copy command on the drop down but don't seem to be able to paste into Emacs. Trying to be good and document my steps but if I can't copy-paste, that's going to be tedious. Suggestions? Thanks!
