Are you on XP/2000? In XP I know it's there and I think in 2K as well, but click on the upper-left icon, go to edit, and then choose "mark". You then select the text and press enter, and it's in the clipboard.

You can also pipe to file and then open the file in explorer, but that's a little more complicated.

e.g.

ls . > lsresult.txt

That will run the command "ls" on "." (current directory) and put all the output into "lsresult.txt" which you can then open up in explorer.
