EVE$HELP.HLB  —  COPY
  COPY

  Same as the STORE TEXT command---copies a range or box without removing
  it, so you can paste it elsewhere.

  Steps:

     1.  Select or find the text to copy (see help on SELECT or FIND).

     2.  Use COPY. A message tells you when the copying is completed.

     3.  To paste the text elsewhere, use PASTE or BOX PASTE.

  Usage notes:

  o  If you use BOX SELECT, or if SET BOX SELECT is in effect, COPY (or any
     key defined for it) is the same as BOX COPY---see help on Ranges And
     Boxes.

  o  Depending on your setting, the copied text is stored in the INSERT HERE
     buffer or the DECwindows clipboard, replacing what you previously
     copied or removed to that storage area. Default is SET NOCLIPBOARD.

  o  On DECwindows, you can use the mouse to copy text from EVE to another
     DECwindows application. You use ALT/M2CLICK or ALT/SHIFT/M2DRAG---see
     help on Quick Copy.
