ahhh... i don't think i've dug thru that menu in putty... i'll have to take a 
look and see what i can find... i've been used to just drag to hilite and the 
text is in the clipboard... or just right click and the clipboard contents are 
pasted where the cursor is... i think one of my problems, without trying it to 
be clear, is that mc is mousable or at least when i try to drag or paste, the 
clicks are interpreted by mc as screen movement stuffs... IDK... we'll give it a 
try and see what i can find ;)
