CUtting and pasting text is easy.  Hold down mouse button 1, select range of
text, and the text range will be copied to the X or gpm clipboard when you
release the mouse button.  Press mouse button 2 (the middle button, or both
left and right buttons at the same time if your mouse is only 2-button) to
paste.  Should work in every X application, and on text consoles too if you
have gpm running.  Takes a little getting used to, but can be faster than the
"standard" way.

Every X application can implement printing differently, but KDE seems to have
settled on Ctrl-P as the shortcut key for printing.  Don't know about GNOME,
since GIMP doesn't have a shortcut key for printing, and neither the older
Gnucash nor xmms have a Print command.  Motif applications like Netscape will
use Alt-P, most likely.  HTH,
