At Sun, 20 May 2001 it looks like Chip Wiegand composed:

CW-->I use fbsd for my typical home use, on 3 machines, and if there is one item
CW-->that I find difficult it is in copy & paste behavior. I use a mail client 
CW-->called sylpheed (based on gtk+), and netscape 4.76 (most of the time). Why
CW-->can't I copy a url link from an email message and paste it into the location 
CW-->bar of netscape? This is such a pain to have to type in those often very 
CW-->long urls in some messages.
CW-->Anyway, that's just my gripe, becuase I just came up against it again.
CW-->

I had a similar problem, worked with one Unix OS and not the
other. I tried holding the <SHIFT> key while cutting and that did
it.
