2 * Emulate GNU Emacs's "kill-ring-save" capability (normally bound to Meta-W),
3 * which copies the text between the caret and the mark to the kill ring. This
4 * version is slightly different than the Emacs version: If there's any
5 * selected text, it copies that text. Otherwise, it selects the text between
6 * the caret and the mark, and copies that.
7 *
8 * Does NOT use jEdit markers.
