"Exch" exchanges Sam's snarf buffer with that of the window system.  If
you have something snarfed in Sam and then highlight something in an
Xterm (obviously, I'm talking about Sam under X11), then using paste in
Sam will replace dot with what was selected under the Xterm and
clicking to paste in the Xterm will insert what was in Sam's snarf
buffer.

Using "Paste" will replace dot with the contents of the snarf buffer.
