The program I recommended, xpcmouse can cut and paste text between
a dos box and any of its programs like yarn, and the windows clipboard --
even when you run dos in full screen mode. Its URL is:

In windows95 you can adjust the properties of the dos box to get
a tool bar and mouse cut/paste in a dos window. Strangely, it appears
this can not be done in windows NT. However, as noted these mouse
type functions only work when DOS is run in a restricted, window, not
in full screen mode.

I believe the older program, dosclip also pastes to the windows
clipboard.
