-  Whenever Emacs saves some text to the primary selection, it may also
-save it to the @dfn{cut buffer}.  The cut buffer is an obsolete

   You can yank the primary selection into Emacs using the usual yank
 commands, such as @kbd{C-y} (@code{yank}) and @kbd{Mouse-2}
 (@code{mouse-yank-at-click}).  These commands actually check the

-@cindex cut buffer
-The X server also has a set of eight numbered @dfn{cut buffers} which can
-store text or other data being moved between applications.  Cut buffers
-are considered obsolete, but Emacs supports them for the sake of X
-clients that still use them.  Cut buffers are numbered from 0 to 7.

-This function stores @var{string} into the first cut buffer (cut buffer
-0).  If @var{push} is @code{nil}, only the first cut buffer is changed.
-If @var{push} is non-@code{nil}, that says to move the values down
-through the series of cut buffers, much like the way successive kills in
-Emacs move down the kill ring.  In other words, the previous value of
-the first cut buffer moves into the second cut buffer, and the second to
-the third, and so on through all eight cut buffers.
