The "+ and "* buffers will get filled with primary and clipboard
selections when they occur, or you can fill them yourself so
that other applications can read from them.

:set clipboard=unnamed, unnamedplus

makes the basic vim clipboard -- the one without a name, the one
that you use if you just dd or y a line -- be the same as the
X11 primary selection buffer.
