Ah, actually, that was silly of me. You wouldn't be able to reproduce it like this, since the normal `p` works just fine :/. Instead, try: "_dd:echo v:register<cr> As in, just take a look at the value of `v:register` after the `"_dd` operation. For me, it's `_`, but after the operation is done, I would expect it to change to the default, usually `"`. Also, I realize I forgot to link to my `vim --version` output: https://gist.github.com/AndrewRadev/11087768 -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
