FWIW, from Emacs help:
C-k runs the command kill-line, which is an interactive compiled Lisp
function in `simple.el'.
It is bound to C-k, <deleteline>.
(kill-line &optional ARG)
Kill the rest of the current line; if no nonblanks there, kill thru
newline.
With prefix argument ARG, kill that many lines from point.
Negative arguments kill lines backward.
With zero argument, kills the text before point on the current line.
When calling from a program, nil means "no arg",
a number counts as a prefix arg.
To kill a whole line, when point is not at the beginning, type C-a C-k
C-k.
If `show-trailing-whitespace' is non-nil, this command will just
kill the rest of the current line, even if there are only
nonblanks there.
If `kill-whole-line' is non-nil, then this command kills the whole line
including its terminating newline, when used at the beginning of a line
with no argument. As a consequence, you can always kill a whole line
by typing C-a C-k.
If you want to append the killed line to the last killed text,
use C-M-w before C-k.
If the buffer is read-only, Emacs will beep and refrain from deleting
the line, but put the line in the kill ring anyway. This means that
you can use this command to copy text from a read-only buffer.
(If the variable `kill-read-only-ok' is non-nil, then this won't
even beep.)
For deleting a larger area (region), I usually left click here, then
right click there, twice.

Nano has a handy line oriented editing functionality:
Hit Ctrl-k to cut one or more lines
move somewhere else
Hit Ctrl-u to paste all those lines there
What's the Leo equivalent?
​Ctrl-K, Ctrl-K cuts one line completely as per Emacs, then Ctrl-V.
Seems to be the same as Ctrl-C without selected text - when you cut
several lines Ctrl-V only pastes the last one. Nano's behavior is to
accumulate all the cut lines for an uninterrupted series of Ctrl-k key
strokes. I thought there was an Emacs equivalent, although it's been
so long since I used Emacs, I don't remember for sure. Wondered if Leo
had that in it's Emacsesque commands.
