FakeVim clipboard commands?

[zxtlpn]

Hi, I haven't been successful in trying to tell Qt Creator to cut/copy/paste text using the clipboard in FakeVim mode. Ctrl+X/C/V don't work and neither do "+p/y/d or "*p/y/d. I have to go to the Edit menu. Also there's the possibility of binding :paste, :cut and :copy ex commands, but that's just quirky. Is there something else I'm missing or should I file a bugreport?

Qt Creator 2.1.0 @ Ubuntu

Thanks.

You should learn Vim to work it out. A learning curve is steep but it's worth it.

copy - y
cut - either in visual mode use x to cut whole part into the buffer or just to cut a current char under cursor
paste - p

Vim rocks.

God bless,
Sergey.

No, Sergey, you don't get it. These don't use the system (Xorg) clipboard.

Oh, I'm sorry, didn't mind it...
But, if you let fakevim bypass control keystrokes (there is an option there in settings - "Pass control key") then you may use editor's shortcuts with fakevim. Consider, they use system clipboard. Maybe not exactly what we should to be but better than nothing.
Otherwise, I think I know no more than you. :)
