    It works on Windows, it's just bugged. You can only copy text when the cursor is in the hourglass text select shape. Just highlight the text
    by dragging with the left mouse button and it's automatically copied
    into the clipboard. If you've got the standard pointer, hit Alt-B to go into scrollback mode and it should change.

    Paste with Shift-Insert in either mode or use the right mouse botton in the hourglass mode.

    I don't know if this works in Macintosh or not.

    9 times out of 10, it works the same, just like the keyboard shortcuts, except on a Mac you use the CMD keys next to the spacebar, instead of CTRL. I'll give it a go!

    That was interesting.

    There was a part that looked like you were coming in for a
    landing, but then you pulled up near the end of the runway. Did
    you underestimate the approach for landing?

    Hello!

    That was interesting.

    And fun for me! :)

    There was a part that looked like you were coming in for a
    landing, but then you pulled up near the end of the runway. Did
    you underestimate the approach for landing?

    No, that is called a Touch and Go. You actually land, but once the front wheel touches, you bring up the flaps, and and put the engine back to full power and take off again. This is when you want to do a lot of approaches and landings for practice.

    The runway at Columbia County Airport is about 5300 feet long. So plenty of room for a little Cessna 172 like I am fying, and for some jets as well.

    At the end of the video, when we pulled on to the taxiway to leave the runway, that is called a Full Stop Landing. We're down and going to taxi back to the parking ramp, hanger, fuel pump, etc...

    It would be really nice if SyncTerm supported cut and paste with theclipboard on Mac.
