I have vim-lite 3.6.86 and use vim inside a terminal window in fvwm. I also have firefox which will let me highlight text and copy it with the right mouse button. I'd like to be able to paste such text into vim but
I can't get it to work.

I've tried "*P , "+P but neither work. Can someone tell me how to make this work?

thanks,

You can type ":reg" in vim, too, to see the content off all registers.

I copied some text while in firefox, then went to vim and typed ":reg". The text is not there. I also tried going into insert mode and clicking the right mouse button, but no text. Do I need a different version of
vim (maybe gvim?).
