If one kills a number of things in a row, e.g. "haha", "hoho" and "hihi", and then yanks the second-to-last ("hoho"), the front of the kill ring has moved to "hoho". If one then wants to yank "hihi", one needs to cycle back through the whole kill ring until it overflows again and the last killed entries are reached again. This can be tedious after editing for a while. Is there some command which allows to either cycle backwards in the kill ring (from the front to the newer entries; "undo" does not work for this), or (better yet) to physically move a yanked entry to the front of the ring? In that case, in my example "hoho" and "hihi" would just swap places. Kind regards, Bram Adams
