I suppose you use <D-V> to paste from the clipboard here? Try using the register * instead (:help "*). With registers, you can yank and paste using regular Vim behavior. Specifically in insert and replace mode, use <C-R>* (:help i_CTRL-R). I hope that's what you're looking for. Best regards, Niklas -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
