Comments or suggestions?

As others have written, vim has changed copy+paste defaults some time
ago. Some even call this changing defaults "they broke copy+paste" ;).
One easy thing you might want to check is if this also happens in
neovim. Neovim did not make this copy+paste change, and it might
behave subtly different. It's quick to install and check.

Thank you for the reply.  :-)


I prefer to use Vim, as it seems to be available and/or installed on all of the various hosts I use (including those I do not administer).
