[comp.emacs] repeating last command in Emacs

heiser@tdw201.ed.ray.com (02/19/91)

I think this is probably a pretty simple Emacs question.  I'm using 
Emacs to learn more about it (I'm really a 'vi' user :-)   

I'd like to be able to do a command, say ^K to delete a line, and
then repeat it -- like doing a dd . in vi.  Is there a command
in Emacs that is analogous to the . in vi?

Also, how does one insert a line, without doing CR, then ^P to move up
to the newly-created line?

I'd RTFM, but the index didn't list anything like what I was looking
for.

Thanks in advance,
Bill
