CUT Same as the REMOVE command---cuts a range or box which you can paste elsewhere. In the BUFFER LIST, deletes the buffer whose name the cursor is on. Steps: 1. Select or find the text to cut (see help on SELECT or FIND). 2. Use the CUT command. 3. To paste the text elsewhere, use PASTE or BOX PASTE. Usage notes: o Cutting a standard, linear range makes text after the cut move left or up, similar to erasing text. The remaining text does not automatically rewrap. To reformat your text, use FILL commands. o If you use BOX SELECT, or if SET BOX SELECT is in effect, CUT (or any key defined for it) is the same as BOX CUT---see help on Ranges And Boxes. o Depending on your setting, the removed text is stored in the INSERT HERE buffer or the DECwindows clipboard, replacing what you previously cut or copied to that storage area. Default is SET NOCLIPBOARD. o In the Buffer List, CUT deletes a buffer without your having to type the buffer name, as follows: 1. Use the SHOW BUFFERS command to list the buffers you created. 2. Put the cursor on the name of the buffer you want to delete. 3. Use CUT or REMOVE to delete that buffer. For more information, see help on the DELETE BUFFER command. o If you are editing an unmodifiable buffer, CUT is the same as STORE TEXT, copying the range or box instead of removing it. (See help on SET BUFFER.) o On DECwindows, you can use the mouse to move text from EVE to another DECwindows application. You use ALT/M2CLICK or ALT/SHIFT/M2DRAG---see help on Quick Copy.
