Need Info on Boe-bot Digital Encoders

Just starting messing around with digital encoders for boebot. The issues I have are as follows.
······ I can't copy from Calibrate.exe after it runs.It shows info in from Boebot , and I can highlight it but no options to copy show when I right click.
··· I run calibrate.bs2 and I see the data in the eeprom using memory map , but this doesn't allow me to copy either.
··· This data changes when I download another program over calibrate.bs2 , so I assume I need to copy it from somewhere?
··· One last qustion if I may , my next robot will incorporate dc motors to increase speeds utilizing a pair of hb-25s. Will programming be somewhat the same as I am using now with servos? Thanks for any help you can give.

    In Windows, copying of highlighted text can be done with a Ctrl-C. If you use Calibrate_All.bs2, you can dump the calibration data to the DEBUG screen using a normal reset. From there, it can be copied (Ctrl-C again) for pasting into your programs.

    Regarding your last question, I' ve never used an HB-25, so I don't know the answer.
