IMO this *is* the fastest. Usually the cursor after the paste stands  
right for a backspace or two. If more than one newline was added I  
press on the trackpad's push-button, keep it pressed and move the  
cursor with another finger kind of diagonally up and away that the  
selection just started reaches the end of the text I wanted. Then  
backspace.


Usually I don't spend much time pitying the mouse pushers. (With Mac  
OS X 10.6, Snow Leopard, you can "add" a wireless so-called Apple  
Magic Trackpad to the keyboard of an immobile Mac.)
