Bram Moolenaar skribis:
A time ago I posted a message about a problem I was having with the
clipboard and Vim 7.2. After updating to 7.3 I checked to see if
the problem had vanished.
I'm using console-only Vim 7.3-3, self compiled, under Ubuntu Linux
10.04 with X Window System.
Here is how I reproduce it:
- I selected and copied the text "David Gómez" from a GMail message
shown in Google Chrome. The problem only happens with that
combination, Google Chrome and Vim.
- From a terminal:
$ xclip -selection primary -o | od -Ax -tx1
000000 44 61 76 69 64 20 47 c3 b3 6d 65 7a
00000c
$ xclip -selection clipboard -o | od -Ax -tx1
000000 44 61 76 69 64 20 47 c3 b3 6d 65 7a
00000c
As you can see, both the primary and the clipboard selections have
the same text, the UTF-8 representation of "David Gómez".
Now, I paste the text into an empty "vim -u NONE", using
"+po<ESC>"*p and the screen shows this:
David Gómez
David Gómez
~
~
...
As you can see the first text is pasted incorrectly, the second,
correctly. Here is the output of ":registers"
--- Registers ---
"* David Gómez
"+ David Gómez
Again, it is shown that the "+" register is coded incorrectly.

Perhaps Chrome puts HTML in the selection?
Running Google Chrome 6.0.437.1 (Official Build 49781)
VIM - Vi IMproved 7.2 (2008 Aug 9, compiled Aug 22 2010 15:00:27)

Chrome does put HTML in the selection. But, not in the one that's
broken.
I found this Chromium bug-report related to a clipboard problem:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=34813
The actual problem doesn't look relevant, but there's a useful
clipboard/selection examining tool in one of the comments:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=34813#c9
Downloaded: gtk_clipboard_dump.cc
Compiled: g++ $(pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0) -o
~/bin/gtk_clipboard_dump ~/Download/gtk_clipboard_dump.cc
Copying the David Gómez sample text in Chrome, and running
gtk_clipboard_dump yields:
