<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>.
|
