Quick copy of text in Firefox

If you want to speed up copying in Firefox, you should use the AutoCopy plug-in to Firefox found at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/383. With this plug-in loaded, any time you highlight text in Firefox, it is automatically copied to the clipboard, no need to right click or hit Control + C. If you do any amount of copying out of Firefox, this is a real time saver.

Well, actually this might be just about as helpful as zilch! The time difference between using Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V as opposed to just highlighting a text and pasting it is, what, a few seconds at most? Pathetic tip. . .find yourself a better one!
