Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I was trying to copy paste, but highlighting the text using the mouse. i managed to highlight the text but i could not copy it with the right click as it would happen in windows xp
you would normally do a ctrl-c ctrl-v if you are using other editors besides emacs.
if you have a two button mouse, you can emulate the "middle button" by pressing
them both at the same time.
or you can map the meta key to your windows logo key and do
meta-w
ctrl-y

unfortunately i have two button mouse.
how do i do it with a two button mouse?
In your /etc/X11/XF86Config put
Option "Emulate3Buttons"
in the mouse section ... then, if you press both buttons at
the same time, they'll be your middle-button.
