Well, what if I yank (in Firefox, say, or in Thunderbird) a multiline sentence
from the middle of a paragraph? As in the example below, I mean? With this
newfangled system, I won't be able to insert it in the middle of a different
paragraph in Vim, except by calling setreg('+', '', 'ac') to force it to
characterwise.
That is the thing I find frustrating, too. I find it easier to whack my cursor at
the beginning of a line or open a new line than split a line, paste linewise, then
join lines again.
Someone did note a workaround for this, though: going into insert mode and using
Ctrl-R + to paste. This perhaps allows the best of both worlds (once the people
who, like me, prefer characterwise clipboard pasting, put together some mappings
to do it that way).
Cheers,
Ben.
P.S. Tony, I think you just won the award for the worst quote trimming ever. ;-)
