- The current region in emacs is delimited by the mark (which you set
- with C-@) and the point (where the cursor currently is). So to remove
- lines using the region commands, you would set a mark, move to the
- other side of the region, and type C-W (to wipe the region and put the
- contents in the kill buffer for later yanking).
