                                DELETE LINE

The DELETE LINE key removes all of the text of the current line.   It  makes  no
difference where the cursor is on the line; the ENTIRE line is deleted.

The PASTE key can be used to restore deleted text lines.  If you do not move the
cursor  between  several successive presses of the DELETE LINE key, then ALL the
lines  you  remove in one series of DELETE LINEs go to the same place in the CUT
area (EMACS's "kill ring") so you can PASTE them all back together.

If you wish to delete only part of a particular line, you have four choices:

 o Use the DELETE FORWARD and BACKWARD keys in CHARACTER mode (Remember,
   however, that text removed with these keys cannot be PASTEd back);

 o In WORD mode, use those same DELETE keys, but faster now because the
   keys are operating in WORD mode (with PASTE possible);

 o  Use the MARK and CUT keys;

 o  Switch to -SUIX mode and use the CONTROL-K, etc., functions.
