Hi shamane!

To cut and paste text, follow these instructions:

On a windows machine, select the text you would like to copy and click CTRL and C at the same time. This cuts the text.

To paste what you've just 'cut', click CTRL and V.

On a Mac, it's the same shortcuts, just the Apple button and C, and then the Apple button and V.

If you don't feel comfortable clicking the buttons, you can go to the 'Edit' toolbar in Explorer, Firefox, Safari (or whatever browser you are using). After selecting the text with your mouse, the 'Cut' 'Copy' and 'Paste' selections should be showing up in the 'edit' bar.

Hope that helps!
