| - | * After copying the current selection of the displayed model using **Copy Selection** or **Ctrl+C**, you can paste that selection either (a) into another model, or (b) into an external text editor. In case (b), the selection is pasted using the EGO Script representation of that fragment. Ports connected to functors that were not selected and copied are shown as disconnected (''.UNBOUND''). The settings specified in **Options | EGO Script** are used when writing the fragment. | + | * After copying the current selection of the displayed model using **Copy Selection** or **Ctrl+C**, you can paste that selection into the same model, into another model, or into an external text editor. |

The only restriction is that the fragment must be syntactically valid. Ports connected to variables whose definitions were not copied are treated as disconnected. | * Likewise, you can paste a script fragment into a model after copying it from an external text editor to the system clipboard.
