Hello,
Figured out this issue on linux: It does not matter if vim is
built with + or - for clipboard and xterm_clipboard; in both
situations it is possible to easily transfer data from the console
to a vim buffer and vice versa by highlighting text (highlighted
stuff gets selected) and clicking the right mouse button to paste
(need to be in inset mode, preferably with "set paste" when
destination is a vim buffer). However, to make the transfers
work, it is necessary that mouse be set to nothing.
:set mouse=""
In some installations, mouse may be set to "a" from
vimrc_example.vim which prevents such transfers; to get back the
ability to transfer, just unset mouse.
