Ahhh, I've got it now.

You can 'copy' text in what empip calls 'discontinuous' sections with the use of the Ctrl key. It works by use of the mouse and the Ctrl key ie You can highlight a word then press the Ctrl key and keep it pressed, now you can highlight whole sections or individual words, indeed, individual letters, in a section of text and then copy just the sections you want to copy. Quite useful that.
