System Copy
===========
System copy provides vim mappings for copying / pastying text to the os specific
clipboard. Most people will be happy just setting their Vim clipboard to the
system clipboard, but I find that doing so pollutes my clipboard history.
Instead, this plugin creates a unique mapping that explicitly pulls content
from Vim into the system clipboard.
Usage
-----
System copy provides a mapping to copy to the system clipboard using a motion
or visual selection. It also provides a mapping for pasting from the system
clipboard.
The default mapping is `cp`, and can be followed by any motion or text
object. For instance:
- `cpiw` => copy word into system clipboard
- `cpi'` => copy inside single quotes to system clipboard
In addition, `cP` is mapped to copy the current line directly.
The sequence `cv` is mapped to paste the content of system clipboard.
Clipboard Utilities
-------------------
- OSX - pbcopy
- Windows - clip
- Linux - xsel
Installation
------------
If you don't have a preferred installation method, I recommend using [Vundle][].
Assuming you have Vundle installed and configured, the following steps will
install the plugin:
Add the following line to your `~/.vimrc` and then run `PluginInstall` from
within Vim:
``` vim
Plugin 'christoomey/vim-system-copy'
```
