No script is necessary: yanking or deleting into the + register copies
or cuts, respectively, to the clipboard, and yanking from the +
register pastes from the clipboard. In gvim you can also use the menus
Edit→Cut, Edit→Copy and Edit→Paste just like in any other GUI program.
Of course for it to work you need a Vim compiled with +clipboard and
you need to be running it either as gvim or in a terminal with access
to the clipboard (not in, for instance, a Linux text console).
Best regards,
Tony.
