terminal emulator in which you can cut and paste
 
I'm using Icewm now and it's great. However I'd like to have a terminal which allows me cutting (and pasting but that's not so important) stuff cause it helps me google on errors. Kde and gnome both had those but I don't know what they're called.

try xterm

I have xterm but I can't cut and paste in there. Or is this somehow setup in my icewm preferences? If I select and rightclick nothing shows up

It seems it's not depended on terminal, but on clipboard. I tryed xterm at KDE and it do cut&paste.

But I don't have a cut and paste when I rightclick. Does the clipboard decide if I can cut and paste cause in other programs I can

Try a middle-click, if you have one.
select the text you want to copy, move to the target window and middle-click

Thanks! I had been trying that already but I misunderstood the directions on a site
