[SGVLUG] vim paste

[Braddock Gaskill]

Okay, if someone can answer this one they'd be doing me a huge favor.

gnome-terminal
ssh localhost
vim

How do I cut from the vim terminal when running over ssh?

The normal trick is "+yy or "*yy using the special + or * clipboard, but
this doesn't work over ssh because the vim instance doesn't have access to
X.

If I try to highlight in the vim window it just goes into visual mode and
gnome-terminal doesn't copy anything to the clipboard.
