Re: Kill ring and backward-kill-word

[Shug Boabby]

hi stefan, the point is that i don't want *any* of the deleted words to
enter into the kill ring. i prefer the kill ring to function the same
way as the clipboard and c&p in all other apps i use... which means
only text that i explicitly M-w (or M-c) gets added to the kill
ring/clipboard.

it is my belief that the situation when someone would want to delete a
word and then paste it elsewhere is a *lot* less frequent than when you
have some text in the clipboard/killring, delete a word and then
paste/yank.
