[Mingw-users] Copy/Paste on mingw+msys




How do I copy and paste on msys shell environment? I searched but couldn't 
find any article about it.  

I am using minGW/Msys  versions 5.1.3 and 1.0.10

uname -a shows the following:
MINGW32_NT-5.1 MRATIN-WXP 1.0.10(0.46/3/2) 2004-03-15 07:17 i686 unknown

on telnet/ssh client like putty, I can use left mouse click to drag and select 
and right click to paste on the prompt. I am wondering if minGW/msys shell 
supports similar behavior. 

Also I installed bash, but when I use it, the env. variable $SHELL still says 
I am on sh. Anybody have any comment/suggestion?

--------excerpt of commands -----------------
$ which bash
/bin/bash

mratin@MRATIN-WXP /c/msys/1.0/doc/msys
$ bash

mratin@MRATIN-WXP /c/msys/1.0/doc/msys
$ echo $SHELL
/bin/sh

thanks,
--Ratin
