address@hidden commands are Emacs commands that insert text into the
-``kill ring,'' from which it can later be ``yanked'' by a @kbd{C-y}
-command. Three common kill commands in normal Emacs are @kbd{C-k}, which
-kills one line, @kbd{C-w}, which kills the region between mark and point,
-and @kbd{M-w}, which puts the region into the kill ring without actually
-deleting it. All of these commands work in the Calculator, too. Also,
address@hidden has been provided to complete the set; it puts the current line
-into the kill ring without deleting anything.
address@hidden commands are Emacs commands that insert text into the ``kill
+ring,'' from which it can later be ``yanked'' by a @kbd{C-y} command.
+Three common kill commands in normal Emacs are @kbd{C-k}, which kills
+one line, @kbd{C-w}, which kills the region between mark and point, and
address@hidden, which puts the region into the kill ring without actually
+deleting it. All of these commands work in the Calculator, too,
+although in the Calculator they operate on whole stack entries, so they
+``round up'' the specified region to encompass full lines. (To copy
+only parts of lines, the @kbd{M-C-w} command in the Calculator will copy
+the region to the kill ring without any ``rounding up'', just like the
address@hidden command in normal Emacs.) Also, @kbd{M-k} has been provided
+to complete the set; it puts the current line into the kill ring without
+deleting anything.
The kill commands are unusual in that they pay attention to the location
-of the cursor in the Calculator buffer. If the cursor is on or below the
-bottom line, the kill commands operate on the top of the stack. Otherwise,
-they operate on whatever stack element the cursor is on. Calc's kill
-commands always operate on whole stack entries. (They act the same as their
-standard Emacs cousins except they ``round up'' the specified region to
-encompass full lines.) The text is copied into the kill ring exactly as
-it appears on the screen, including line numbers if they are enabled.

A numeric prefix argument to @kbd{C-k} or @kbd{M-k} affects the number
of lines killed. A positive argument kills the current line and @expr{n-1}
