You can import and export items from the sugar journal
with this complicated procedure :

Insert a 2nd USB
(required to be present for this to work)
highlight the desired lines in terminal or browser
click the scissors up icon (copy) on the top bar
open the frame (upper right corner with mouse)
click on the journal icon on to frame
move to the bottom left edge of frame

drag the new clipping listed in the journal icon with mouse to the 2nd USB-stick icon now showing in bottom bar next to journal icon
hover over the USB-stick icon
remove
remove USB-stick from computer running sugar
insert USB-stick into another windows or linux computer and drag file on USB to the desktop
(or into host system by removing and re-inserting it after exiting sugar)
open and copy this file to a paste bin application in your browser

'''Note''' this same method '''drag-drop from a 2nd USB-stick''' can be used to export Photos from the sugar record activity
and to import/install to journal of (activity.xo) files if reversed
'''Note2 Screen capture'''
An important use case for the Keep button. How do we store just the image, without the software state? Some Activities, including Turtle Art, have a button for this purpose.
<Alt> + 1 or <PrtScn> (when present) captures the screen and stores a screenshot in the Journal.
