The command deletes the contents of the
image's selections, and saves them in a clipboard so that they can
later be pasted using the “Paste”, “Paste
Into”, or “Paste As New” commands. If there is no
selection, the entire current layer is cut. The areas whose contents
are cut are left transparent, if the layer has an alpha channel, or
filled with the layer's background color, otherwise.
