The method I give works for Konsole. I have just pasted into Konsole using
it: Select (in this email!) -> centre click in Konsole. I do this often.
E.g., when I am copying a command from somewhere, to make sure that I get it
right: I am a lousy typist, so I make copious use of copy and paste. But
why "click -> <ctrl>+V" when you can just "click"?? ;-) (I was born lazy.)

P.S. The original email had an erratum posted immediately I had sent it. I
have inserted the correction.
