Subject: 23.0.95; Wish: please provide kill-whole-visual-line function
Date: Sun, 05 Jul 2009 00:33:55 +0400

Hello!

The new Emacs provides function kill-visual-line, which is bound to
C-k in Visual Lines Mode. It would be nice if Emacs also provided
function kill-whole-visual-line similar to kill-whole-line, bound to
C-S-backspace in Visual Lines Mode:

(kill-whole-visual-line &optional arg)

Kill current visual line.

With prefix arg, kill that many visual lines starting from the current
visual line.  
If current line consists of a single visual line, and arg is nil, also
kill the trailing newline.
If arg is zero, never kill the trailing newline.

I'm ready to provide any additional info,
Andrey Paramonov
