Everything deleted can be stored into a buffer. This is achieved by putting a " and a lowercase letter before the delete command. The deleted text will be in the buffer with the used letter. If an uppercase letter is used as buffer name, the the corresponding buffer will be augmented instead of overwritten with the text. The undo buffer always contains the latest change. Buffers <1-9> contain the latest 9 line deletions ("1 is most recent).
