Switching from Vim to Intellij

Do you have "+y and "+p configured to use the system clipboard? Does that work for you even when running vim over ssh?

As an aside, I just tested it and "+y and "+p work fine with vim over ssh if you enable X11 forwarding. Apparently you may need to use "gvim -v" rather than "vim" on Ubuntu though.

1. I don't have them "configured" that's how it works out of the box.

2. Why would I run vim over ssh when I can use netrw with a local vim?

I've never been able to get netrw to work when mixing Windows and Linux machines and that's the environment I work in. Plus, I usually need to do more than just edit some file and so I rely on screen.

I just fired up a windows VM; using the msys distribution that comes with Git for windows, the scp protocol "Worked for Me" but sftp did not.
