To whom it may concern,

I read the following ad it all works;

More precisely:
Start up bash by doing Start -> Programs -> Cygwin -> Cygwin Bash\ Shell.
Right click on the icon in the upper left of the title bar and select
properties
Under Options, select 'QuickEdit Mode', hit ok
Select 'Modify shortcut that started this window', hit ok
To copy from a Cygwin Bash window, highlight the text by left clicking and
dragging the mouse, then hit the enter key to copy the text.

To paste into a Cygwin Bash window, click on the icon in the upper left of
the window menu bar and then do edit -> paste or do Alt-Space e p That is,
hold down the Alt key, hit the space bar, let up on the Alt key, type an e
and then a p.

My question is, "Is there a way to create a shortcut for Alt-space, e, then
p?" Can this be with fewer key strokes?

Thanks in advance!

Buff
