I am new emacs user and one of the things that irritates me is that when I want to replace current selected text with the one from clipboard I need to delete it first. Every other application that I know replaces pasted text with the current selection by default.
Here's a little bit more detailed description:
As artscan wrote in a comment, you can get this functionaly for the normal yank (paste) operations by adding:
(delete-selection-mode 1)
to your configuration.
If you want yank by mouse to also delete the current selection, you can add:
(put 'mouse-yank-primary 'delete-selection 'yank)
in your configuration as well.
