I want to know how to select, copy the entire command from a command block (separately) and paste it into the chat or an another command block on Mac. I've already took a look to the other question similars, none of them responded at what I had in thought correctly. Thank you.

I feel this is more of a computing question than related to minecraft.– Luka ashApr 15, 2016 at 1:45

I don't know the differences are between mac and windows, but can you use Shift+left or Shift+right to select text? From there, if mac has a copy hotkey (like ctrl+C for windows) you can copy the text.– AngelicaApr 15, 2016 at 1:50

Use the same commands you use outside Minecraft to copy/paste on a Mac:
- Paste: ⌘ Command+V
- Copy: ⌘ Command+C
- Cut: ⌘ Command+X
- Select all: ⌘ Command+A
- Select part of text per symbol: Shift+← or Shift+→ (In the direction you want to select the text)
- Select part of text per word: Ctrl+Shift+← or Ctrl+Shift+→ (In the direction you want to select the text)
These shortcuts work inside the chat, in Command Blocks and most other text fields ingame. They do not work with signs, unfortunately
For 1.8 and above, use Cmd + C to copy, and Cmd + V to paste, just like the rest of the operating system.
To select all text, use Ctrl + A
For below 1.8, use Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V to copy and paste inside Minecraft. To copy and paste outside, use Cmd + C and Cmd + V. If you want to copy outside of Minecraft to inside, use Cmd + C outside then Ctrl + V inside, and vice versa.
To select all text, use Ctrl + A

@Kimatuy I do not believe this works for chat, but correct me if I'm wrong. But it should work for command blocks.– APCodingApr 15, 2016 at 23:27

@nelson2tm Thanks! It turns out I answered that with 1.7 knowledge. Fixed it now, but your answer is better, honestly. I up-voted it :)– APCodingApr 16, 2016 at 15:09

@Kimatuy OK, it should work now. I made a mistake. But also check out nelson2tm's answer below, it's better, with more shortcuts.– APCodingApr 16, 2016 at 15:09
