Is there a way to have a block of text that can be pasted in a file at any time (something that will not be overwritten when you do a Ctrl-k etc...). I would like to put a standard header in fron of all my functions when I'm programming. It will always be the same. It would be nice to not have to open a file, copy the header, switch back to the file I'm working on, and then paste it in. Thanks.
Mike

What's about writing a skeleton combined with an abbrev?
Kind of this (c-style):
(define-skeleton my-comment
"insert-skeleton for comments"
>"/*****************************************************" \n
>"* "(skeleton-read "function title: ") \n
>"* " \n
>"* " _ \n
>"* " \n
>"* " \n
>"*****************************************************/" \n)
(define-abbrev c-mode-abbrev-table "cmnt" "" 'my-comment)
just put it in your .emacs file and switch to c-mode type
'cmnt' an it will expand. you could also define a keyboard
shortcut for your purpose. feel free to define it for other
abbrev-tables (m-x list-abbrevs).
i think this solution is more comfortable and flexible as the
insert-file.

You could try tempo.el, it's a nice package that lets you get
interactive with standard blocks of text.
If you're using doxygen, I've found that doxymacs
(http://doxymacs.sf.net) is great for doing such insertions. It uses
tempo.el and automatically finds your parameters and return values and
creates entries for them in the comment. Fully customizable, of
course.

(define-key esc-map "K" 'insert-kgold-header)
(defun insert-kgold-header ()
"Insert header at the current cursor position in the current buffer."
(interactive)
(insert
"Your standard header ..."
)
(insert "\n")
)
If it's a function header, you then most likely want to have
another function which cut and pastes the function name and parameters into
your header.
Bonus: You can insert a file using:
C-x i runs the command insert-file
so you don't have to do your "open, copy, switch, paste" anyway.
