In the 1980s, many text editors and word processors mimicked the WordStar command set, making Ctrl+Y a common synonym for "delete line." In Borland IDEs it also deletes the current line. In emacs it does a paste action (known as "yank"). [4] Emacs uses Ctrl+/ for Undo and Redo. In vi and vim it scrolls the display up one line. [5]

The earliest editors (designed for teleprinter terminals) provided keyboard commands to delineate a contiguous region of text, then delete or move it. Since moving a region of text requires first removing it from its initial location and then inserting it into its new location, various schemes had to be invented to allow for this multi-step process to be specified by the user.
