Just had an update appear on my N9 for Meego terminal App to version 0.2.2+0m6 which supports selecting text and copy and paste. Should please a few people!

Got the update for xterm as well (on PR 1.1).
Good to see cut&paste.

Big news is also that we can actually get independent updates (in this case for xterm) in addition of firmware updates. :)

Ouh, great! Still no update here... but waiting eagerly. This would make my ClipMan application a lot more useful at the Nokia N9! :)

What is still a bit irritating with update is that keyboard commands does not work.. like ctrl+c and ctrl+v.. also selecting with the arrow keys are not supported.

[Ctrl] + [C] is at a Terminal always to break a running command. So this keyboard command is not possible to use it for the clipboard. Please correct me if I'm wrong! :)

Finally I got the update, too! :D

Here is a screenshot:

Tab the clippers logo to toggle between marking and scrolling.

Works great. I'm so glad Nokia has released this update. This will save a lot of time.

Sadly I have some trouble to mark exactly the part of a command I want to reuse correctly with my clumpy fingers... :( but (shameless advertisement :D) we are able to swipe fast to ClipMan, edit the content of the clipboard to remove useless spaces, enter commands and characters and go back to the terminal to past exactly the command we need again.

(this works even with the free and Lite version of ClipMan) ;)

CTRL+C is *default* terminal line keystroke to send "intr" signal to running command, and that normally breaks current command. You can change that with "stty" command.

But you are correct that if Terminal application would eat CTRL+C that would probably break tonloads of things and it is much cleaner not to do such evil thing...
