Or try it "the Vim way":

Copy to clipboard: "+y
Paste from clipboard: "+p
Copy (for use only within Vim): y
Paste (last text copied with just y): p

This is an EXTREMELY simplified view. Read more at:

:help y
:help p
:help registers
:help quote+

and for that matter:

:help d
:help c

and many, many other commands that use registers, with help locations
around the same area as those already mentioned.

Basically what the "+ notation does is tells Vim to use the system
clipboard rather than the internal one for the next operation.
