Overview—Editing Host Data

Topics in this Help book describe how you can edit host data using copy, paste, cut, and other word processing functions. You can customize edit settings in the Session Profile dialog box. Some edit settings are specific to the terminal. For example, settings in the Edit folder are not available when you are connected to a VT host.

Before you edit host data, consider the following factors:

• Have you modified the mouse settings? Some functions are possible only with the default mouse settings.
• Is the location to which you want to copy the text protected or unprotected?
• What is the host operating system?
