I routinely yank from vim and paste in other editors without difficulty. I'm not certain this is the reason, and I didn't come up with this on my own. I asked a similar question here and it was given to me. Anyway, my .vimrc has this:

"-----------------------------------------------wrap to screen w/o linebreak
