When editing a file, I killed a portion of the file, created a new buffer, 
and then yanked the killed portion in the new buffer. When I exited emacs
it asked me whether I wished to save buffers, and I answered yes to all the
buffers, one by one. However the new buffer which was created was not saved,
(it did not ask "....save buffer xxxxx.tex?" , where xxxxx.tex was the new bu
buffer.\

I guess this is a bug. The file was a huge file, and, luckily I had a backup
which lets me get most of my previous work back. I shudder think, what
would have happened if there was no backup.

Finally as a suggestion: In the edt emulator on emacs would it be possible
to allow `painting' of the screen when using cut and paste.
