I would like to be able to cut text from a tkdiff listing. Often, I want to partially roll back code to the earlier version. Here at Google, the earlier-version file is not easy to see; it's the original copy in the piper depot, and not in an easily found location. It would be great if I could just select a few lines from a tkdiff listing and then paste it into the editor for my current changelist file, to accomplish this.

After further investigation, I guess this is more like a bug report. When I right-click on text I have selected, I would expect that "=C=opy" would be one of the options in the drop-down menu. It is not. It does appear in the Edit menu, and it appears to work. Please make the =C=opy option appear when I right-click on selected text.
