I believe that the problem of Appending to Paste (*) Register was one
of the points Bram was looking at (problem is no uppercase for a
symbol)
Was there
In Vim7 and above, you can append the output of an ex command to the
clipboard register '*' using the following command:
:redir @*>>
- Yegappan
From the doc how are the following different?
:redi[r] @*>
:redi[r] @+> Redirect messages to the selection or clipboard.
For
backward compatibility, the ">" after the register
name can be omitted. See |quotestar| and |quoteplus|.
{not in Vi}
:redi[r] @*>>
:redi[r] @+>> Append messages to the selection or clipboard.
{not in Vi}
Anyway I was looking for something like
:g/fred/y A append to register a but for the clipboard register *
1) @*> and @+> clobber the register, @*>> and @+>> append to it.
2) * and + are synonymous, except on X systems, where "+ is the CLIPBOARD
(pasted into other programs by Edit => Paste or Ctrl-V), while "* is the
SELECTION (pasted by MiddleMouse).
For yanking, you may use something like
:g/fred/yank | let @a .= @0
Best regards,
Tony.
