Hi,
I am not sure how to call it. I am looking for a function which deletes the
paranthese-block point is currently in.
With paranthese-block, I mean something like this:
(Text Stuff)
or
{
a line
}
or
[ Text Stuff ]
Does something like this exist?
Thanks!
Nathan

Hit C-M-u (backward-up-list) until you get to the start of the block,
then C-M-k (kill-sexp) to kill it.

It's bound to C-M-k by default. One can mark such expression with
C-M-SPC (mark-sexp).
