Hi,

:verbose set paste?

This command results in the word 'paste' shown at the bottom of the vim
window.

But I do need to use the shift key. It's a fact for me even with 'set
mouse=a'.

So you mean my problem need some other changes, related to xterm etc? Why do
I need that? I just can copy from/to between: emacs, xterms (different
computers, different operating systems, does not matter at all), browser
edit windows etc...
Maybe you could elaborate that point a bit? It seems that vim is not that
smart at all in the end....



Thanks
