Not quite:

^K^C was indeed copy the previously marked block.

But ^K^V is to *move* the marked block of text to the cursor location.
*Paste* is generally more of a copy procedure, whether or not the block
of text has actually been previously cut. 

And ^K^X is to exit theWordStar/'joe'  program.

Being imprinted by WordStar nearly 40 years ago, I still use the
same keystrokes whether I am using true WorStar on CP/M, or using the
'jstar' alter-ego of the 'joe' text-editor in Linux.

Regards.

Jack
