    Well, I'm not really sure what to say. I've just copied that
    whole section with drag-mouse, Ctrl-C. I then opened a new
    interpreter window (effectively, Start Run python) and
    right-clicked over the window. At this point, the lines I
    copied were copied in and the function accepted by the
    interpreter.

    I do have QuickEdit on by default in all by console windows,
    but the only difference I expect that to make is that you'd
    otherwise have to use the window's System Menu (Alt-Space,
    Edit, Paste).
    I have to right-click on the title bar (or left-click on the icon on the
    title bar), select edit and then select paste -- but it does work.

    I just found the QuickEdit option. While in an administrator account
    (if Python is installed for all users), bring up the menu as specified
    above, select Properties instead, then the Options tab, then select
    QuickEdit on the right. When clicking OK, being admin allows
    modification of the shortcut and not just the current window.

    Learn something new every day. Thanks.
