The cut and paste is generally make in X with the 3rd mouse button (the middle one). Selecting text with the left button, then press the middle button in other applications make a paste. If your mouse has not 3 buttons try to press both of them togheter to act like the 3rd button. Btw it depends on how your X server is configured... Hope it helps... P.s. The cut and paste works also in the console if the "moused" daemon is properly started...
