I just copied what was in the *Messages* buffer. I tried the sequence

C-c C-e C-b h H

to get HTML, but I got that error.

Interestingly, this worked with the same file on a desktop Mac I have. I
thought perhaps the state of emacs had somehow gotten changed, but
exiting emacs and re-starting did not help.

I can copy in emacs. I guess this is more of a vSSH question ... how can
I copy to the iPad clipboard so I can paste into another app.
Thanks!
