Hi :)
Wow, i never knew that!  It's not exactly the same as the normal short-cuts but it's close enough :)

Thanks Hannie! :D

For pasting into Cli i think it's worth mentioning that the keyboard short-cuts wont work but that mouse paste is always good.  I always imagine the person at the other end going "Ewwww" at that, if you say it right, and that helps them remember it.  Humour being a good tool in the battle to teach people.
