<p>If you are using Gnome or KDE or a modern window manager, you can cut, copy or paste text without using an application's built-in Edit menu. In fact, you can copy and paste text within a terminal window and between a terminal window and GUI applications. This can be useful for copying commandline output to a text editor, or for copying and pasting within a console application such as Nano.
</p><p>The keyboard shortcuts can be freely mixed. In other words, you can use any method to copy followed by any method to paste. However, the mouse shortcut is best not mixed with the keyboard shortcuts.
