It works when I use the keyboard to "cut" (command-x), and I can paste if I manually select "paste" from the menu....but not from the keyboard.
Weird. Thoughts?

I have one solution, but it involved an altar, a few chickens, and a Barbara Striesand CD...

Yes, I can. Obviously, the command key works as well.

Have you restarted the computer?
There's a chance pbs is borked. A restart might fix that.

Frequently pasting icons won't work, that's a longstanding Jag problem. Maybe 10.2.7 will fix it? hah right
