How to copy/paste text between MIT Scheme and Windows

Question

I want to copy/paste some text between MIT Scheme's Edwin and Windows. Is there a way?

Right now I open source code in notepad, copy/paste there, save and close, return to Edwin and synchronize. It's not convenient.

Answer 1

In the documentation, it's stated that

Edwin is very similar to GNU Emacs—you should refer to the GNU Emacs manual for information about Edwin's commands and key bindings

So my guess is that you have to:

• First set a mark at the beginning and at the end of the text to be copied: [Ctrl-spacebar]
• Then copy it: [Meta-W]
• And to paste back from windows: [Ctrl-Y]

Answer 2

The code of Edwin was creating from a branch of Emacs. In emacs the copy-paste is called yank.

The yank ring interacts with the graphical interface .

Look here at a detailed description of the interface.
