Use Paste (or press Shift+Ins) to insert a block of text from the Clipboard at any point in the active window. To insert text, place the cursor where you want the text to be inserted and choose Paste. To replace one piece of text with another, select the text to replace and choose Paste. Tip: To put text on the Clipboard, use Cut or Copy. After you insert text using Paste, the Clipboard still contains the text, and it can be pasted again.
