Copy and Paste in rdesktop

I have installed Remotedesktop Client 0.23 (Gnome frontend for rdesktop) to connect to my Windows machine. Unfortunately, I am unable to perform copy and paste between my rdesktop sessions and/or rdesktop to a text editor running in Linux. The good thing is that there is a work-around for this. Connect to the Windows machine using RDP 5. Thus say:

#: rdesktop -5 hostname -g 1024x768 -u user.name
