Sorry if this shows up twice, used the wrong email account to send it
the first time.
Vim 7.3.1-315
unnamedplus A variant of "unnamed" flag which uses the clipboard
register '+' (|quoteplus|) instead of register '*' for
all operations except yank. Yank shall copy the text
into register '+' and also into '*' when "unnamed" is
included.
Only available with the |+X11| feature.
Availability can be checked with: >
if has('unnamedplus')
So if I read that correctly, when using unnamedplus all yank operations
should use the '*' register and not the '+' register.
The register contents behaviour I see is also correct (will demonstrate
below).
But what appears to be wrong is the value of v:register.
gvim -u NONE -U NONE --noplugin -N
Create a new buffer with the following lines:
1
2
3
4
5
:set clipboard=
:echo v:register
"
Go to first line, yy
:echo v:register
"
:echo @"
1
Go to 2nd line, "ayy
:echo v:register
a
:echo @"
2
:echo @a
2
Good.
:set clipboard=unnamedplus
:echo v:register
+
Go to 3rd line, yy
:echo v:register
+
:echo @"
3
:echo @+
Something else
:echo @*
Something else
Go to 4th line, dd
:echo v:register
+
:echo @"
4
:echo @+
4
:echo @*
4
So, referring back to the text again:
unnamedplus A variant of "unnamed" flag which uses the clipboard
register '+' (|quoteplus|) instead of register '*' for
all operations except yank. Yank shall copy the text
into register '+' and also into '*' when "unnamed" is
included.
If the + and * registers are not modified by yank operations, then
shouldn't v:register = " when yanking text (3rd line in the above
sample). Since @+ is not modified at all.
Thanks,
Dave
