For the opposite : cmd-w and paste into any other application as usual. If Cmd-y seems not to work, try Opt-w If you are very new to Emacs, i suggest you to type "Ctrl-h" then "t" : it will launch the Emacs tutorial and should make you more familiar with the keyboard strokes and general handling & behavior of Emacs. BTW : in the tutorial the META key is either the mac option or command, it depends on the Emacs configuration of the mac-command-key-is-meta variable. -- Sébastien Kirche
