@cindex cutting text
@cindex deletion
Most commands which erase text from the buffer save it in the kill
ring. These are known as @dfn{kill} commands, and their names
normally contain the word @samp{kill} (e.g., @code{kill-line}). The
kill ring stores several recent kills, not just the last one, so
killing is a very safe operation: you don't have to worry much about
losing text that you previously killed. The kill ring is shared by
all buffers, so text that is killed in one buffer can be yanked into
another buffer.
