That's good for some pasting jobs. Under Linux, I also have a function key defined
to paste so I don't have to go reaching for the mouse. I haven't figured out how to
do that with cygwin yet, though.
But, it might be useful to mention in this context that you can also access /dev/clipboard.
for example:
$ note < /dev/clipboard
(note: note is my script)
