Good, I hope...really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Pete, why do you need something special to cut and paste? Apple has a built-in text editor that should store the cut, while you open up the other doc to paste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could also bring up your SpotLight search and just type "TextEdit" and it should be the top hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
