Day 3: delete

While we have the common dd, x or d{motion} like dap to delete a paragraph or daw to delete a word, there are less known ones.

When you do a 'd' like 'dap' to delete a paragraph, Vim copies it in the _yank_ register, overwriting what you have copied before.

To avoid that, use the "black hole register":

"_d{motion}

"_dd will delete the line without storing it.
