Hi,

Let's say that I need to delete some text from a file. I use emacs, I
open the file, I erase the text. I now need to copy some text from
another text to the current buffer. I put it in the clipboard, and I
then type Maj - Insert. Most often (if not always), it simply puts
back the text I erased previously from the current buffer. How can I
deactivate this, and simply ask to Maj - Insert to paste the
clipboard's content?

Thanks.
