Hi, I'm wondering if this is even possible:
I want to ssh to a remote server, open vim, split a file, and drag the split
separator around with the mouse. More importantly, I want to use the "*
register, so I can select text with the keyboard and put it into my local X buffer
(to paste with shift-insert). None of this currently works for me.
I just wanted to report that I do have this working, although often
times it gets in the way for me so I may turn it off in the future.
Just thought I'd mention an alternative -- use netrw and edit the file
locally. vim scp://hostname/path/file will let you edit the file
locally, using the mouse/selection locally, and when you :w the file
will be saved back to the remote machine.
Regards,
Chip Campbell
