You can send the region you are looking at straight to outside tools using View then In External Tools, or by typing "s" then "t". It hands your current sequence or coordinates to CRISPOR, CHOPCHOP, Primer3Plus, Primer-BLAST, NEBCutter, RNAfold, Pfam, Ensembl, and others, with no copying and pasting.
