Multiple consecutive kills shouldn't overwrite the clipboard #537

Open asmeurer opened 7 years ago

In emacs and readline, when you perform multiple consecutive kills, they append to the kill ring instead of replacing it. That way you can kill multiple lines at once and yank them back. This also works for things like kill-word.

Thanks for pointing out! This needs to be fixed.

Was it also implemented for kill line?

Not yet. Good point. This will be for later.
