shortcut keys to context menu on command window lost in win 7

In windows XP, I used to be able use "ALT + E + S" to programmatically grab the contents of a command window. This does not work in Windows 7. When you right click on the title, the "Edit" selection no longer has the "E" underlined, indicating the shortcut key to use.

Does anyone know if there is a way to turn these back on?

On a command window, click on the top left icon on the window and while the context window is open, press "E" key and then "S" key to achieve the same results.

Thank you, but I am looking for a way to send keys there from a program, without the use of the mouse.
