1) Depends on if you have a three or two button mouse.
Two button = Right click and drag over text to highlite, Right click to copy then click both buttons at same time to paste.
Three button is about the same except middle button is copy, ritht button is paste (i think)

2) ~/ means your home directory I dont know what /# means.

The # at your prompt usually means that you are root, and the $ is for a regular user.
