I see in 8.x and 9.0 that there is no man page for it anymore even though it still works correctly. The man page for "moused" has one short sentence about "vidcontrol" command being used to enable the copy/paste function, but there is no examples and I can not get it to work using vidcontrol command. What is the current supported way of enabling the mouse copy and paste function in 9.0?
