What commands are attached to the DEL, BackSpace, shift-DEL and
shift-BackSpace?
(Are the expected cmds attached to the expected keystrokes?
 Remember that DEL is the emacs name for the Backspace key and
 'delete' is the emacs name for the DEL key.)

What happens if you open a different file type (e.g., fundamental or text)?
(Did some hook or other customization reassign these keystrokes to a
different cmd?)

What happens if you run the command directly ( i.e., M-x kill-region RET )?
(Has the command itself been damaged?)

Hi

I have been having a problem with the cut key (shift and delete) - it
just deletes the selection instead of placing into the cut and paste
buffer - then when i go and paste it inserts previous text???

i have my delete key set to delete selection.

Thanks
Richard
