Re: vim with gui in windows

Thanks Gary, nice workaround! Just "y" is enough because I have "set clipboard=unnamed" which copies to a clipboard by "y".

Mouse selection works although keyboard one has some problems. Keyboard selection might be also adjusted in a similar way but it is not so important for me.

Stan: "*y works but i'd like to copy to the clipboard only by selection.

Igor.

Does "*y not work for you? It does for me, when running vim (not gvim)
in a command window in Windows 10. (I have actually mapped ^C
(control+C) to "*y so that Ctrl+C behaves the same in Windows GUI
applications and in command-prompt Vim.)

My Vim is 7.4, but Id be awfully surprised if that stopped working in
later versions.
