*I* think it's easy, but then I've been working on computers for 50
years now. I even got my wife to learn how to do it. So I'll tell you
how and you can decide for yourself whether to forget it or not. (PS:
this works in Windows: I don't use Macs.)

(3) ctrl-C will copy whatever you have highlighted (the URL) into the
clipboard. Edit|Copy will do the same thing.

I can sure see you've been working on computers for 50 years! You're still
using the 50 year old method. ; )

Much easier to keep your hand on the mouse once you've highlighted some text,
then right-click and choose copy. There's also a cut and a paste choice when
you right-click too. If you have two windows open (eg. a website and a
newsgroup) then you can immediately copy from one window and paste into the
other. Easier than remembering all that ctrl-C stuff IMHO.
