Hi list, I find that when I execute a shell command in vim via :call system() or :!command after I copy something to "+(Linux clipboard), 1. the content of the clipboard is wiped, and 2. vim's "+ will be of junk characters if the copyed content has multi-byte characters. But if there is just ASCII characters, "+ doesn't change.
I tested on two Fedora 16 machines and one Ubuntu 12.04. They all show the same behavior. It is the same with my own built vim(7.3.761) too. I normally open a terminal, use 'watch -n 1 xsel -b' to monitor the system clipboard, and use vim to edit some file in another terminal (Use "+yy, !ls, :reg to identify the issue). I hope someone else can reproduce and identify the issue. I leave some Chinese characters here for your tests: 中文测试. -- alick Fedora 16 (Verne) user https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Alick -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
