Title: RE: Cut and Paste from Windows to XY4It's possible that the limit only applies to the Windows clipboard...and how much time you have. I regularly paste rather large amounts into Xy and it hasn't choked so far...BUT, the paste process itself is, by modern standards, quite slow. Try pasting a couple of pages worth and you'll see. The text appears at what looks like a little more than the maximum human typing speed. Try pasting a couple of MEG and you'll have to wait awhile.
