They copy/paste/select to whatever has the focus. So may be console window, history etc instead of the editor.

Each of the other dock windows also handles the commands from the main window.

Do we need the main menu entries when the editor has focus? All three menu entries are also available in the editor's menu.

With the focus in a file in the editor in the GUI, using the main main copy, paste and select all do not do anything.

This is when using the mnenu option itself, not the shortcut keys, or editor menu.

This would have changed with this changeset: http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/86eca5d178a6

Patch attached that adds back the 3 slots that are connected to the main menu for these commands.
