Bug: Cannot redir to @+
- Symptom: Trying to :redir to register + (seen by other apps as the
clipboard) gives
E475: Invalid argument: @+
- Vim version: 7.0.017 for GTK2 GUI
- Workaround: :redir to register * then (after :redir END) do manually
:let @+ = @*
Just redirecting to @* is not enough, the other app (e.g., Thunderbird)
will paste from whatever was previously in the "clipboard" (actually,
the "primary selection" @+).
- Additional comments: On non-Unix versions (where @* and @+ are
synonymous) this is of course not a problem.
Best regards,
Tony.
