Using macros to run ClipText gives seamless access to the Windows clipboard from DOS programs; press whichever function key you've assigned, plus one other letter, job done. No more trouble than Windows Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V. Some of us still prefer the productive environments we already have, rather than trying to build something similar all over again, probably at great(er) expense, in Windows. I bitterly resented Gate$ pirating Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V, which are important WordStar control keys, and date to before Windows was invented
Oh, dear, better not start on that...If you like "small" free Windows editors, you might take a look at TED Notepad which is one of the most powerful small ones. Because I like WordStar editors I sometimes use WSedit at http://www.hypermake.de/english/overview.html which gives you both WordStar keys in a CUA-compliant WinGUI editor, so you can have clipboard access as well.
