Specialty Definition: Copy and paste

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In computing, copy-and-paste is a popular, simple method of transferring text or other data from a source to a destination.

Copying can be performed on most graphical user interface systems using the key combination Ctrl+C, or by using some other method, such as a context menu or a toolbar button. Once data have been copied into the area of memory referred to as the clipboard, they can be pasted into a destination using the key combination Ctrl+V, or another method dependent on the system.

The popularity of this method stems from its simplicity and the ease with which data can be moved between various applications without resorting to permanent storage.

Moving is done with cut and paste.

SCRAP-:BOOK:, n. A book that is commonly edited by a fool. Many persons of some small distinction compile scrap-books containing whatever they happen to read about themselves or employ others to collect. One of these egotists was addressed in the lines following, by Agamemnon Melancthon Peters: Dear Frank, that scrap-book where you boast You keep a record true Of every kind of peppered roast That's made of you; Wherein you paste the printed gibes That revel round your name, Thinking the laughter of the scribes Attests your fame; Where all the pictures you arrange That comic pencils trace -- Your funny figure and your strange Semitic face -- Pray lend it me. Wit I have not, Nor art, but there I'll list The daily drubbings you'd have got Had God a fist.
