-@c Emacs 19 feature
 If the buffer or text is read-only, @code{kill-region} modifies the kill
 ring just the same, then signals an error without modifying the buffer.
 This is convenient because it lets the user use a series of kill
 commands to copy text from a read-only buffer into the kill ring.

+@defun kill-append string before-p
 This function appends the text @var{string} to the first entry in the
 kill ring and makes the yanking pointer point to the combined entry.
 Normally @var{string} goes at the end of the entry, but if
 @var{before-p} is non-@code{nil}, it goes at the beginning.  This
 function also invokes the value of @code{interprogram-cut-function}
-(see below).  This handles @var{yank-handler} just like
-@code{kill-new}, except that if @var{yank-handler} is different from
-the @code{yank-handler} property of the first entry of the kill ring,
-@code{kill-append} pushes the concatenated string onto the kill ring,
-instead of replacing the original first entry with it.
