The X server does not provide a clipboard, although this functionality may be provided through some interprocess communication facilities. The method for copying text mostly the same as on Windows or Mac OS X: selecting the text and either right-clicking and selecting "Copy", or pressing "Ctrl-C." The paste it in the target document by pressing "Ctrl-V" or right-clicking and selecting "Paste."
