I don't understand the above at all. In KEGS 1.19, you can paste into
KEGS. Just press the middle button (on Linux--on a Mac, use Edit->Paste).
KEGS 1.20 (when ever it gets released) will add
Copy_Text_Screen_to_clipboard as well using Ctrl-F9. It works fine on
Linux between xterm and KEGS. But if you want it to work with Chrome,
then I need to do more work (since X11 creates a dance between programs
trying to cut&paste, and Chrome is stuck in MIME-world, not Unix plain
strings, so I have to fiddle with things to make it more compatible).

Middle button! haha. I was actually reading through the readme files today.
It also explains why the speed goes crazy when I accidentally click the
Right button. I don't care about Chrome as I am a Mac dude trying to use
Command+C and Command+V on a boring Linux PC. I've also been opening the
debugger and typing r to reset, but I discovered today that Ctrl+Break does
reset! I rarely use any of these weird PC keys and mouse buttons.

Also, copying way more than a screen at a time and much larger paste buffers
already works using the socket emulation mode -- thank you for this feature.
It works amazingly well on Linux between whatever Terminal I am using and
KEGS -- I can drag text from another program to the Terminal and it pastes
into KEGS. That's what the unreadable one-liner alias is about. I have it
set up so I can remember what to do from a Terminal. All I do is type t and
follow the instructions:

KEGS Configuration F4

↲ Serial Port Configuration

Serial Ports = Only use sockets 6501-6502
Serial Output = Mask off high bit
√ Modem on port 0 (slot 1) = Simple socket emulation mode

Sorry, I should know better than to ever paste code into USENET
