Im using GPG on damn small linux.
so far everything is fine just one thing i cant seem to figure out.
if i digit the command gpg at the prompt, is asks me to write a text I wish to encrypt (I guess in memory as it does on kgpg using the clipboard)
I use a laptop with a 2 buttons mouse, and it seems not to be able to copy the selected text.
so how would i proceed to encrypt a text I write in the terminal and paste it into the browser email page to send it out and a simply encrypted text?
thanks\

highlight the text you want to copy, click onto where you want to paste it, and click both mouse buttons at the same time.

if you had a 3 button mouse, you would center-click.

hope that fixes ya.
