3.1.2 The Edit Menu
-------------------

The `Edit' menu contains standard editing operations, such as cutting,
copying, pasting, and killing selected text.  Also allows editing DDD
options and preferences.

`Undo'
     Undo the most recent action (<Ctrl+Z>).  Almost all commands can be
     undone this way.  Note: Undo and Redo, for details.

`Redo'
     Redo the action most recently undone (<Ctrl+Y>).  Every command
     undone can be redone this way.  Note: Undo and Redo, for details.

`Cut'
     Removes the selected text block from the current text area and
     makes it the X clipboard selection (<Ctrl+X> or <Shift+Del>; Note:
     Customizing the Edit Menu, for details).  Before executing this
     command, you have to select a region in a text area--either with
     the mouse or with the usual text selection keys.

     This item can also be applied to displays (Note: Deleting
     Displays).

`Copy'
     Makes a selected text block the X clipboard selection (<Ctrl+C> or
     <Ctrl+Ins>; Note: Customizing the Edit Menu, for details).  You
     can select text by selecting a text region with the usual text
     selection keys or with the mouse.  Note: Customizing the Edit
     Menu, for changing the default accelerator.

     This item can also be applied to displays (Note: Deleting
     Displays).

`Paste'
     Inserts the current value of the X clipboard selection in the most
     recently selected text area (<Ctrl+V> or <Shift+Ins>; Note:
     Customizing the Edit Menu, for details).  You can paste in text
     you have placed in the clipboard using `Copy' or `Cut'.  You can
     also use `Paste' to insert text that was pasted into the clipboard
     from other applications.

`Clear'
     Clears the most recently selected text area (<Ctrl+U>).

`Delete'
     Removes the selected text block from the most recently selected
     text area, but does not make it the X clipboard selection.

     This item can also be applied to displays (Note: Deleting
     Displays).

`Select All'
     Selects all characters from the most recently selected text area
     (<Ctrl+A> or or <Ctrl+Shift+A>; Note: Customizing the Edit Menu,
     for details).

`Preferences'
     Allows you to customize DDD interactively.  Note: Customizing,
     for details.

`Debugger Settings'
     Allows you to customize the inferior debugger.  Note: Debugger
     Settings, for details.

`Save Options'
     If set, all preferences and settings will be saved for the next DDD
     invocation.  Note: Saving Options, for details.
