RE: inserting text from elsewhere

[Bingham, Jay]

I assume that you are running emacs on a PC under Windows,  not that it matters in this case, but it might the next time you ask a question.

 

After getting the text in the clipboard, switch to emacs and use the standard yank from kill ring command, i.e. C-y.

Subject: inserting text from elsewhere

How do I insert text from another program, i.e. MS notepad, into emacs.

 

So in any other program I copy what I want and paste it from the Windows' clipboard...(I think you get it)

 

Thanks so much for your help!
