I am at the beginner/rediscovering BBC BASIC stage so don't get *too* technical!
You know the phenomenon whereby you can read complex text that's all garbled up, so long as the first and last letters of each word are maintained in position and the other letters are correct although in random order?
Out of interest I am writing a small BBC4W program to do this - you input the sentences and the program does the business and prints onscreen the jumbled sentence.
What I can't do is to copy the screen output so as to use it outside the program: for example, copy it to the Windoze clipboard, and I can't seem to find a way of retrieving this output text string to, say, Notepad.

You can copy the contents of BB4W's output window to the clipboard by pressing Ctrl+Tab, as described in the main Help documentation under 'Graphics and Colours... Capturing the screen contents':
