I don't know exactly what you want to do, but you can use the clipboard
from the keyboard without using any mouse clicks if you use the Aurora
editor. It's an extremely powerful and fast editor available in DOS
and 32 bit console mode versions. The 32 bit version is beta -- I
prefer the DOS version.

To paste to the Windows clipboard while running in a DOS window OR FULL
SCREEN, you select the desired text using shift and the arrow keys, then
hit Ctrl-k, <grey +>. To paste from the Windows clipboard, hit Ctrl-k,
then <grey *>.

You can get Aurora from:

I've used a lot of editors and Aurora is simply the best I've used by
far.
