When I use Y
to yank lines, I can yank any reasonable amount of lines (I've never knowingly hit a limit). However, if I close the file and then try to paste p
into another file, only the first 50 lines are pasted.
I have confirmed that only the first 50 lines of the text are found in ~/.viminfo
.
How can I increase the amount of lines to store? Googling for "vimrc yank lines" and such did not return any relevant results. Additionally, how would I have found the answer in the fine manual? From trolling "h viminfo" and such I found set history
but increasing the number did not help.
