netrw plugin bug?

[Alexei Alexandrov]

Hi All,

In Vim 7, there seems to be a bug in netrw plugin behavior. It looks like it 
wipes out clipboard register (mine is set to unnamed). That is, I yank 
something in one file, then I do, say, :e ., pick up a new file, open it with 
Enter and try to paste the text. A space will be pasted instead of previously 
yanked text.

Please try the latest netrw, available at my website:

 see Network Oriented Reading, Writing, and Browsing

I keep the latest versions of netrw, albeit somewhat alpha, on my website.
