Copy & Paste in a Dos box (was: Pyhton script to call another program)

Depending on how it was spawned, you can either right-click in 
the window and choose Mark/Paste (when marking, use <enter> to 
terminate the selection; and selections are blockwise rectangular 
rather than linewise or characterwise).  Alternatively, if you 
click on the system menu (the icon in the title-bar with 
resize/minimize/maximize/close/help), there should be an Edit 
submenu with the same options within.

A pain, but at least feasible.
