Likewise, when you use Ctrl-y to grab a region of text from the kill ring, it will use the current selection if you've selected text recently. Please note that when you use Ctrl-w or Meta-w to put a region of text in the kill ring, it will become the current X selection. Each time you repeat this command, emacs will undo a previous change to your file. This is useful if you yank back text at the wrong location or sometimes if you delete something you didn't mean to. The maximum number of kills remembered at any given time defaults to 30. You can keep hitting Meta-y as many times as you like, if you want to recover something killed a while back. If you want to yank the region you killed before the last one, hit Ctrl-y to yank, and then Meta-y to yank the previous kill instead of the one you just retrieved. Instead, it keeps track of them in a "stack" fashion. Meta-y - When you kill or copy a region of text, it doesn't forget about previous kills.You can yank back the text as many times as you wish. The text will be placed at the current emacs cursor location. Ctrl-y - This command will yank back the text which was deleted most recently with the above command.

Ctrl- or - Either of these commands will set a mark.The following commands will also allow various specific cut-and-pastes: As before, clicking the RIGHT mouse button in the same place kills the region selected.Clicking and dragging the RIGHT mouse button now extends a previously mouse-selected region, from the end of the region that is closer to where you click.If you drag after the last click, you can select a range of words or lines. Double and triple clicks with the LEFT mouse button now select the word or line surrounding where you click.The old method of clicking at the beginning with the LEFT mouse button and at the end with the RIGHT mouse button still works, but the cursor will end up at the end of the region instead of at the beginning. Dragging with the LEFT mouse button now puts the selected region in the kill ring so you can paste it into other X applications.The cut and paste behavior of Emacs is similar to most other standard X applications.
