cut in editor<%>

Copies and then deletes items in the editor.

The system may execute a cut (in response to other method calls) without calling this method. To extend or re-implement the copying portion of the cut, override the do-copy in text% or do-copy in pasteboard% method of an editor. To monitor deletions in an editor, override on-delete in text% or on-delete in pasteboard%.

• (send an-editor cut extend? time) -> void
     extend? = #f : boolean
     time = 0 : exact integer

  Copies and then deletes the currently selected items. If extend? is not #f, the old clipboard contents are appended.

  See Cut and Paste for a discussion of the time argument. If time is outside the platform-specific range of times, an exn:application:mismatch exception is raised.
