Also consider:
- Function: delete-and-extract-region start end
This function deletes the text between positions START and
END in the current buffer, and returns a string containing
the text just deleted.
If point was inside the deleted region, its value afterward
is START. Otherwise, point relocates with the surrounding
text, as markers do.
