You can use the virtual mouse, then hover over the text you want and hold the spacebar. Once the text is selected, ctrl-c to copy and ctrl-v to paste.
If you want
Anyway, left swipe across the screen to get the virtual mouse icon to come up. Click on the icon and it will highlight the text you scroll across automatically

Hover mode. An arrow is displayed on the left. Clicking the arrow creates a pointer that can be used as a mouse to select text. Deactivate by clicking the arrow on the left. A quick hover can also be performed by swiping-and-holding finger on screen. This keeps the pointer visible until the finger is lifted. Also, pressing space performs a button click while on "quick hover". This can be handy if you just need to access a mouse-hover menu or such.
any help pls...

Drag from left to right. The arrow will come up then click on it and drag the finger on the text or sentense you may want on the browser then use Ctrl+C on the keyboard to copy.
Go to terminal and click on the top bar for paste option.
done! easy pessy

WRONG!!!!!! YOU CAN PASTE and copy.
Just use the top option bar. the terminal will show the option if you have copied something from anywhere.

is it possible that some apps and widgets doesn't support copy and paste?
for example i have problems with the note widget. looks like i can't copy from there.

is there a setting on this that i have to do for the mouse pointer to show? its very frustrating now to copy a text on a browser...
i did exactly whats told on the wiki...
rrow is displayed on the left. Clicking the arrow creates a pointer that can be used as a mouse to select text. but still the mouse pointer is not showing and when i try to select a text on the browser, the browser glides with my finger or stylus. no mouse pointer showing...
