This is slightly different than older questions about PuTTY. I have a Raspberry Pi and am using PuTTY to connect the Pi to another machine over a serial connection.

While it is possible to drag the mouse over PuTTY's window to select and copy the text, this tedious and error prone. Is there a way to select all of the text in PuTTY's window? There are no window controls that might allow me to automatically select all of the text and it is not a terminal window.

I am running "Raspbian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)" on a Raspberry Pi 3, if that makes a difference.

Hold Ctrl and right-click the PuTTY window (not on the titlebar) and select Copy All from the menu:

Try right-clicking on the title bar of PuTTY and selecting "Copy All to Clipboard". That should copy all of the text inside the PuTTY window to your clipboard.
