Doesn't that just cut one line at a time? Or is this Emacs-like, where it buffers the lines?

That host doesn't have internet access, though, so installing a different editor wasn't really an option to begin with...

If the host doesn't already have nano, you fucked up super early

But yeah, it buffers the lines.

Move the cursor to the start of what you want to cut, press ALT+A, then move the cursor with arrow keys (you'll see text be highlighted from where the cursor was to where you move your cursor), then once you've moved the cursor to where you want, press CTRL+K to cut.
