If you work in avgraphical environment (X-Windows) and have text terminals (xterm, aixterm, ...) you want to copy use the cut&paste abilities of X: left-click and mark, go to another window with some open vi (in input mode of course) and middle-click to paste.
Otherwise you could use "capture" or I/O-redirection.
If it is a graphic window (like Netscape, ...) use one of the many X-screenshot-programs there are: "xgrab" is one of them, there are many others.

2. UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers
Hi All,
Perhaps a dumb question, but how do you do a "print screen" within the X-Window in linux. I'm running KDE, is there a utility I can use in that package that I'm not aware of. Or, is there a way to turn on the <alt><print-screen> function with the keyboard?
Thanks in advance.

LWM(1) General Commands Manual LWM(1)
NAME
lwm - Lightweight Window Manager for the X Window System
SYNTAX
lwm [ -s session-id ]
DESCRIPTION
Lwm is a window manager for the X Window System. It provides enough features to allow the user to manage their windows, and no more.
Windows are surrounded by a frame with a titlebar at the top next to a small box. The frame is a grey colour for all windows except that
which has the input focus, where it is black.
In the default configuration, lwm uses the enter-to-focus scheme, where moving the pointer into a window gives that window the input focus.
Lwm may also be configured to use the click-to-focus scheme, where a window must be clicked on (with any button) to receive the input
focus. Clicking on a window in this mode causes the window to be raised. Note that a click used to focus a window is always swallowed by
lwm, so clicking a button in a new window requires two clicks.
A button 1 click on a window frame brings that window to the top. Dragging button 1 on the frame of a resizable window repositions that
edge of the window. If a corner rather than an edge is dragged, then both edges forming the corner are repositioned. While you're reshaping
a window, a little window pops up to show you the window's current size.
In the default configuration, button 1 on the root window does nothing.
Button 2 is used to drag a window by its frame, repositioning the window but maintaining its position in the window stack.
In the default configuration, button 2 on the root window brings up a new shell.
A button 3 click on a window frame hides that window. Pressing button 3 on the root window brings up a menu of all the hidden windows.
Releasing the button while over an item will unhide the named window.
A button 3 click in the frame while Shift is held down pushes the window to the back, under any other windows. (Users with 4-button mice
are encouraged to use their fourth button for this function.)
A click with any button inside the little white box in a window's frame can be used to close the window.
OPTIONS
Lwm accepts the following command line options:
-s specifies a client ID for the X Session Management system, and is used exclusively by session managers.
RESOURCES
Lwm understands the following X resources:
titlefont font used in window titles
popupFont font used in popup window (menu/size indicator)
border width in pixels of window borders
button1 program spawned when button 1 is clicked on the root window
button2 program spawned when button 2 is clicked on the root window
focus focus mode, one of "enter" for enter-to-focus (or sloppy focus), or "click" for click-to-focus
