Terminal in OS X uses command-V to paste. Almost all OSX apps use the same key combos to copy/paste/cut, being Command with C, V and X.
Command is the cloverleaf-looking key, and also the Apple key on Apple keyboards. As far as I know, it acts the same as the Windows key when used on a Win PC or most Linux desktops. I understand it might not make sense from within an Ubuntu desktop to nab that key for the same key options as in OS X. I don't have an Ubuntu machine running KDE handy at the moment, but last I looked at it I think shift-F13, F14 or F15 worked in place of shift- insert in Konsole - just the naming of the shortcut with a nonexistent key was the minor issue. -- Konsole on PPC requires a key not on PPC keyboards https://launchpad.net/bugs/53543 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
