In which applications are you actually wanting to copy/paste?
All/Any.
If you mean in the terminal,
Which "terminal"?
that depends on which terminal you're referring to. However, shift-insert seems to normally paste and you can use applications like xsel to copy output.
Still does not tell me how I should _SELECT_ whatever I need to copy & paste.
Realistically, this kind of stuff is program-specific and nothing to do with xmonad.
As others said, it depends on the program. With gtk apps like web browsers, you can use shift-ctrl-arrows to select with keyboard, but actually, selecting on gtk apps is one of the only things i find easier and quicker to do with a mouse. I guess the keyboard selecting feature is already implemented in your text editor. :) You could also use view instead of less as a viewer.
