You can also copy from a cmd window... from that same upper left corner choose "Mark" I think it is... then use the mouse to select/highlite what you want to copy

Thanks. I was using a right mouse click and selecting paste from the pop-up menu to paste from another window. The menu this brings up also has the mark option, which I did not previously know how to use.

Leep:

Thanks for your mobi2mobi example showing how to change the title. Sadly however, I haven't been able to emulate etitameh and make the leap to --author.

I've downloaded "The Gentle Grafter by O Henry, but when I transfer it to the Kindle, the author's name doesn't show up. I'd like to fix that. Can someone give me an example of a command that will do this? I've tried everything I can think of.

Thanks

Naturally, after pleading for help, I figured out how to do it

I entered

mobi2mobi "The Gentle Grafter.prc " --outfile "The Gentle Grafter.prc" --author "O Henry"

and it worked!
