-title: Cut and Paste Operations
----
-
-<p>
- The <dfn>clipboard</dfn> is a holder for various kinds of objects (regions,
- control events, plugins) that is used during <dfn>cut-and-paste
- operations</dfn>.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Cut</h2>
-<p>
- A <dfn>cut</dfn> operation removes selected objects and places them in the
- clipboard. The existing contents of the clipboard are overwriten.<br />
- The default key binding is <kbd class="mod1">x</kbd>.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Copy</h2>
-<p>
- A <dfn>copy</dfn> of the selected objects are placed in clipboard. There is
- no effect on the selected objects themselves. The existing contents of the
- clipboard are overwritten. <br />
- The default key binding is <kbd class="mod1">c</kbd>.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Paste</h2>
-<p>
- The current contents of the clipboard are <dfn>paste</dfn>d (inserted)
- into the session, using the current <dfn>edit point</dfn> as the
- destination. The contents of the clipboard remain unchanged — you
- can paste the same item multiple times. <br />
- The default key binding is <kbd class="mod1">v</kbd>.
