RE: Emacs manual node Killing should explain kill-ring and mention "cut"

[Drew Adams]

    `i' in the manual takes you to node Earlier Kills, which occurs much
    later than the explanation of killing vs deleting. But the notion of a
    kill ring or at least some sort of clipboard is central to the notion
    of killing, as opposed to deleting.

I meant `i' "kill-ring", not just `i'.

But I see now that `i' "kill ring" takes you to the Kill Ring menu item (but
not to the Kill Ring node).

In any case, some mention should be made of the kill-ring (or ~clipboard)
and of "cut" in the Killing node. And add a link there to the Kill Ring
node, where it is explained in more detail.

    Node Killing should also mention that "kill" is similar to what is
    sometimes called "cut".

Just as node Yanking mentions that "yank" is similar to "paste".

    It's important that people understand what
    killing text is all about in this node - and that means 1)
    introducing the notion of saving the killed text somewhere and 2) the
    link to their understanding of "cut" in other apps.
