Cut to Delete a Buffer The buffer you want to delete is a modified buffer (you made edits that have not been saved). Therefore, when you try to delete that buffer, EVE prompts for one of the following choices: DELETE_ONLY .... Deletes the specified buffer. WRITE_FIRST .... Writes out the buffer, then deletes it. If there is no file associated with the buffer, EVE asks for a file name to use for writing out the buffer. QUIT ........... Cancels the operation---buffer is NOT deleted.
