Bug: Cannot redir to @+


Redirecting the Ex command output and messages to the + register
is not (yet?) supported and is not mentioned in the help for the ":redir"
command.

- Yegappan

- 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.
