Just copied and pasted above from Tom T on a Mac. (Then I went back and added quotation marks and italicized) On Mac it's Command C and Command V. In case you are a complete novice, to highlight put cursor at beginning, press mouse or touch pad and hold while you drag to end of what you want to copy. Then release. It will be highlighted (blue for me). Then Command V (on Mac)
Why it repeated for Tom T is beyond me. Possibly a sticky key?
