I thought it might be the case that it's for replacing them. I do find it confusing, because 1) "insert" in the name of the function. 2) "C-h f" for that function talks about inserting. 3) "C-h f" for hexl-mode talks about inserting. Admittedly nothing talks about "deleting" things. Thanks for the C-q pointer. Best, Igor On Sun, Sep 6, 2020 at 10:25 AM Lars Ingebrigtsen wrote: > > Eli Zaretskii writes: > > >> 6.
