Re: vim: how to copy selected text from vim running inside a remote ssh session, to local windows clipboard

Not sure if I understand the problem correctly, but if are using
something like putty for ssh, you should be able to highlight the text
and paste into outlook, etc..., simply highlighting should make it
available on the clipboard.
