Copy / Paste between Vim and OS X clipboard
To be able to copy/paste between Vim and the clipboard on OS X, it's actually really easy.
- Install the latest Vim (you need at least 7.4) e.g.
brew install vim
- Add the line
set clipboard=unnamed
to your .vimrc file.
Now you can use the normal Vim commands for yanking and pasting to and from the system clipboard. Yay!
