(...) This can be achieved in GNU Emacs using the secondary selection: step0: do (setq mouse-yank-at-point t), step1: place the cursor where you want to yank the test, step2: M-leftclick on the beginning of the text want to copy, then M-rightclick on the end *OR* M-drag over that area, step3: M-centerclick to paste.
