Description darbie 2008-11-19 01:16:52 UTC 
The emacs keybindings do not emulate the CTLR-K key like emacs does.  CTRL-K should cut the current line and put it 
into the kill buffer.  If I hit CTLR-K six times 3 lines should be put into the kill buffer.  Then hitting CTRL-Y 
should yank out all 3 lines.  Currently only the last line of the 3 will come out and the other 2 lines are lost.  
This is not correct emacs behavior and is very annoying to people used to using emacs.

Accepted.
Comment 2 Sergey Petrov 2009-04-14 09:17:07 UTC 
reproducible with 090413, also keybinding description(Actions column) say nothing about special behavior.
Comment 3 Martin Balin 2016-07-07 07:28:12 UTC 
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
