The quickest way to get to your stated goal: :help mswin.vim
or you could do it yourself by mapping <C-C> to "+y; <C-V> to "+p; etc
I recommend learning the "Vim way", that is "<register>y and
"<register>p, etc - you become much more flexible in vim. This is
especially true for X-windows, as you have 2 different "global"
copy/paste registers:
- the "+" register: this is where stuff goes when you select "copy" in
most programs
- the "*" register: this is where your "selection copy" goes
By the way, it's not such a great idea to remap <c-c>, <c-x> and <c-v>,
those key combinations actually do something in Vim, and you'll be
restricting yourself a bit.
Cheers,
Albie
