vim剪切
本文简单梳理了 vim 如何开启 +clipboard 及通过寄存器与系统剪贴板进行交互。
os x 下 vim 无法复制到系统剪贴板的问题
如何将 Vim 剪贴板里面的东西粘贴到 Vim 之外的地方？
reg#
vim 输入 :h reg 查看寄存器相关内容：
5. Copying and moving text copy-move
quote
"{a-zA-Z0-9.%#:-"} Use register {a-zA-Z0-9.%#:-"} for next delete, yank
or put (use uppercase character to append with
delete and yank) ({.%#:} only work with put).
:reg :registers
:reg[isters] Display the type and contents of all numbered and
named registers. If a register is written to for
:redir it will not be listed.
Type can be one of:
"c" for characterwise text
"l" for linewise text
"b" for blockwise-visual text
:reg[isters] {arg} Display the contents of the numbered and named
registers that are mentioned in {arg}. For example:
:reg 1a
to display registers '1' and 'a'. Spaces are allowed
in {arg}.
y yank
["x]y{motion} Yank {motion} text [into register x]. When no
characters are to be yanked (e.g., "y0" in column 1),
this is an error when 'cpoptions' includes the 'E'
flag.
yy
["x]yy Yank [count] lines [into register x] linewise.
p put E353
["x]p Put the text [from register x] after the cursor
[count] times.
Special registers:
'"' the unnamed register, containing the text of the last delete or yank
'%' the current file name
'#' the alternate file name
'*' the clipboard contents (X11: primary selection)
'+' the clipboard contents
'/' the last search pattern
':' the last command-line
'-' the last small (less than a line) delete
'.' the last inserted text
底行模式输入 :reg 可列举查看寄存器，输入 :reg % 查看当前文件名，输入 :reg +（或 :reg *）查看剪贴板寄存器。
%可作为很多命令的 range，例如:%d删除所有行，:%s/foo/bar/gc查找替换全文。
寄存器是完成这一过程的 中转站。Vim 支持的寄存器非常多，其中常用的有 a-zA-Z0-9+"。
0-9：表示数字寄存器，是 Vim 用来保存最近复制、删除等操作的内容，其中 0 号寄存器保存的是最近一次的操作内容。a-zA-Z：表示用户寄存器，Vim 不会读写这部分寄存器；"（单个双引号）：未命名的寄存器，是 Vim 的默认寄存器，例如删除、复制等操作的内容都会被保存到这里。+：剪贴板寄存器，关联系统剪贴板，保存在这个寄存器中的内容可以被系统其他程序访问，也可以通过这个寄存器访问其他程序保存到剪贴板中的内容。
vim 寄存器的数据作用域仅限于vim本地，甚至如果开多个vim窗口，每个窗口都有一套自己完整的寄存器，互相不影响。
"" & "0#
Vim 中执行删除（d,x,c）的内容都会被存放到默认的未命名寄存器（unnamed register,""）中，之后可以读取默认寄存器中的内容进行粘贴操作。
Vim 中执行复制（y[ank]）命令时，要复制的文本不仅会被拷贝到无名寄存器中（""），还会拷贝到复制 专用寄存器（"0）中。
这样，当我们在执行复制操作后，如果执行了删除操作，还可以执行 "0p 从复制专用寄存器中找回上次复制的内容进行粘贴。
general#
Using vi buffers to copy lines
The vi editor allows you to copy text from your file into temporary buffers for use in other places in the file during your current vi work session. Each buffer acts like temporary memory, or, as some programs call it, a "clipboard" where you can temporarily store information.
u: undo;yy: yank;
"ayy Copy the current line into a buffer named a.
"b7yy Copy 7 lines into a buffer named b.
"bp Put the information in the buffer named b after the current cursor position.
"bP Put the information in the buffer named b before the current cursor position.
普通模式下，输入 "%p 在当前光标后插入当前文件名。
uppercase#
假设我们想搜索文档内所有的 TODO 并将其收集到一起，可参考以下步骤：
- 执行
qaq录制空宏，清除寄存器"a； - 执行
:g/TODO/yank A，将匹配的内容追加（而非覆盖）到指定寄存器。
use uppercase character to append with delete and yank
C-r#
在插入（编辑）模式下，按下 <C-r>，当前光标处将会显示 " 提示输入寄存器。
紧接着输入寄存器编号即可粘贴寄存器内容，例如输入 % 插入当前文件名。
:h <C-r>
CTRL-R {register} c_CTRL-R c_<C-R>
Insert the contents of a numbered or named register. Between
typing CTRL-R and the second character '"' will be displayed
to indicate that you are expected to enter the name of a
register.
clipboard=unnamed#
执行 :set clipboard ? 查看 clipboard 的值，默认为空。
在 vim ~/.vimrc 添加 set clipboard=unnamed 之后，y，d，x，p 和 ctrl-c/ctrl-v 一样，直接把内容复制到系统剪贴板。
不建议这么配置，因为 vim 没有自己的 reg buffer 了，会带来诸多不便。
建议开启 +clipboard 寄存器与系统剪贴板进行交互。
I just found that if you add following line into your ~/.vimrc file,
then VIM is using system clipboard
In your ~/.vimrc file you can specify to automatically use the system clipboard for copy and paste.
On Windows set:
On Linux set (vim 7.3.74+):
On macOS:
brew install vim, and then append the following line to ~/.vimrc
now you can copy the line in vim with yy and paste it system-wide
+clipboard#
打开 vim 的 clipboard 属性后，vim 才会多出 "+ 寄存器，映射为系统剪贴板。
Vim: copy selection to OS X clipboard
The vim that ships with OSX doesn't have +clipboard or +xterm-clipboard. You can verify this with vim --version | grep clipboard. It's possible to resolve this with brew install vim --with-client-server
faner$ which vim
/usr/bin/vim
faner$ vim --version | head -n 4
VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Nov 13 2019 20:55:32)
Included patches: 1-503, 505-680, 682-1312
Compiled by [email protected]
Normal version without GUI. Features included (+) or not (-):
faner$ vim --version | grep clipboard
-clipboard +jumplist +persistent_undo -vartabs
+eval -mouse_gpm +syntax -xterm_clipboard
-
double-quote asterisk (
"*) before any yank command will yank the results into the copy buffer. That works for Windows and Linux too. -
On macos 10.8, vim is compiled with
-clipboardso to use"*yyou'll need to recompile. Luckilybrew install vimwould compile a new version easily for you and it will be+clipboard.
通过 brew 安装 vim 之后，将会支持 +clipboard：
$ which vim
/usr/local/bin/vim
$ readlink `which vim`
../Cellar/vim/8.2.0/bin/vim
$ vim --version | grep clipboard
+clipboard +keymap +printer +vertsplit
+emacs_tags -mouse_gpm -sun_workshop -xterm_clipboard
"+#
日常的 <C-c>、<C-v> 使用的是系统剪贴板（system clipboard）。系统剪贴板作为系统级别的全局变量，两边当然不能混用。
所以 vim 专门提供了 "+ 寄存器作为对系统剪贴板的映射，可以理解成自动把 "+ 寄存器的内容再复制一份到系统剪贴板。
非编辑模式下，输入 "+yy 复制光标所在行到系统剪贴板，再执行 "+p 将系统剪贴板的内容粘贴到 vim 当前光标处。
copy/paste#
Copy and paste content from one file to another file in vi
When using "* register under X11, also see x11-selection. This also explains the related "+ register.
requires +clipboard out of vim --version
If you are using VIM in Windows, you can get access to the clipboard (MS copy/paste) using:
"*dd -- cut a line (or 3dd to cut 3 lines)
"*yy -- copy a line (or 3yy to copy 3 lines)
"*p -- paste line(s) on line after the cursor
"*P -- paste line(s) on line before the cursor
The lets you paste between separate VIM windows or between VIM and PC applications (notepad, word, etc).
