[DM Smith]

I have worked on some of these.

Fixed. Puts up a dialog stating there is nothing to save.

Fixed. Checks for file with nothing in it and puts up a dialog for empty 
files.

Neither of these work. The code declares that they are not implemented. 
Should they be removed?

I read the code and figured out that it works on the selected text in the 
Bible view, Commentary View or the Dictionary view based upon what it thinks 
is current.

I found that Ctrl-C in these work just as well. I find that selecting text, 
going to the Edit Menu and choosing Copy is tedious. (Remember Alt-C brings 
up help)

If Cut and Paste are removed, does it make sense to only have Copy on the 
Edit menu? Especially when there are standard ways to do the same thing.

I'll send a patch tomorrow.
