<cut> etc are not very helpful. Most people have a pc. I just searched
Info to see if I could find out what <cut> could be for key. I found no
information.
Those names in the menus are not helpful to me at least. If there are
some keyboard keys on some computers named like that and Emacs uses
appropriate key bindings for those, why do they have to appear in the
menus? Is not those C-w (and what more???) better candidates? Would it
not be better for those wanting to learn Emacs?
