Subject: Some questions about emacs
I've some question about emacs. I've tryed to look at the documentation
but I haven't found anything.

Simply... how I can copy some text in the buffer used by c-y? I use c-w
but It also cuts the text....
Or other ways to mantain a region in memory and paste it later...

Also, I use line and column-numer-mode, but there's a way to show really
the line numbers at the left of the buffer (like hexl-mode but without
the hex things ;))

Thanks

Well, there is M-w.

Try setnu.el. Can probably be found at

use M-w.

look at M-y.

C-y yanks the most recent killed or yanked text.
If you type M-y just after C-y, the yanked text is replaced by the
previous entry in the kill-ring.  It might not be very clear, so just
try it:  Do some editing involving C-w/M-w/C-y, then do C-y M-y and
watch what happens.

There is also a package called `browse-kill-ring'.  I never used it,
so I can't really tell you how it works.

I think the package setnu.el does just this.

M-w copies the region.

Try setnu, downloadable from:

    http://www.wonderworks.com/download/setnu.el.gz

I use `368 M-g' to go to line 368 (M-g bound to goto-line). With compile
and igrep next-error (bound to C-x `) jumps to the mentioned line.  Most
likely you're problem can be solved without setnu ...
