Hi, thank for answers. I'm not at work now so I can only try on
Windows with putty term branched on a CentOS server
paste from windows to vim is never a problem, but I can't make it from
vim to outside.
For this to work, you will have to check with putty how to get data into
the windows clipboard. It's not a Vim function, which is running inside
the ssh/telnet session you are using.
gg"+yG doesn't seem to yank anything
ggVG"+y or ggVG"*y yanks something but I don't get it with ctrl-v
V enters visual mode, and according to the vim help it automatically
copies into the PRIMARY buffer (x11 has 3 clipboards). Try using gg"*yG
when you get a chance - it copies the entire text into the x11 PRIMARY
buffer, and is faster than using V, which has graphical implications.
Note again, this will probably not work when using putty for you
terminal, but then again, it might, if you get your settings right.
Hope you find your solution soon
