Sorry for not remembering to attach this one, too.

(defun copy-current-line ()
  (interactive)
  (kill-ring-save (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol)))

There is a difference between my version, and this one, as mine doesn't

I'm using Emacs 22.2.1 as Emacs 23 is not the default in Ubuntu 9.10.
Thanks for the quick response :-)
