The same procedure works on my VIM 7.4 patch 1-1572 but not on my VIM 7.4 patch 1-1718, is there anything changed in between that affects this?
Procedure:
$ vim -u /dev/null some-file
Then in vim
:set nocompatible
:vmap <C-F6> "+y
Then type some text, press v
to enter visual mode, select the text, then press Ctrl-F6
. Then in normal mode, press "+gP
. In earlier version, copy-paste are successful but in newer version nothing happens. Any thoughts? Is it my vmap incorrect, if yes, what would it be to achieve the same effect?
