- Well, I'm running telix 3.20 in a dos window right not, and when I click
- once on the miniture icon in the upper left corner of the window I get
- the following items:
-
- Restore
- Move
- Minimize
- Maximize
- Hide Alt + F11
- Close
- Help
- Full-screen
- Font Size
- Scroll
- Mark
- Copy
- Copy All
- Paste
- Dos Settings
- Window list ctrl + esc
-
- I just discovered these items a couple of days ago, and I must say this
- ability to mark areas of the window and copy them into the clipboard is
- very useful.
-
- Good luck!
