;; This file is part of GNU Emacs.
;; text inserted while the region is active will replace the region contents.
;; This is a popular behavior of personal computers text editors.
+;; Interface:
+
+;; Commands which will delete the selection need a 'delete-selection
+;; property on their symbols; commands which insert text but don't
+;; have this property won't delete the selction. It can be one of
+;; the values:
+;; 'yank
+;; For commands which do a yank; ensures the region about to be
+;; deleted isn't yanked.
+;; 'supersede
+;; Delete the active region and ignore the current command,
+;; i.e. the command will just delete the region.
+;; 'kill
+;; `kill-region' is used on the selection, rather than
+;; `delete-region'. (Text selected with the mouse will typically
+;; be yankable anyhow.)
+;; non-nil
+;; The normal case: delete the active region prior to executing
+;; the command which will insert replacement text.
+
;;; Code:
