I have a bunch of vim commands that I keep in a file because I don't find them easy to remember.
I want to paste them into whatever vim session I'm running.
However, since upgrading to High Sierra, when I paste a vim command into a vim session, it adds the text as if I had asked it to insert the text!
Really, really annoying and I can't figure out how to make it accept the paste as if it were keyboard input.
Any ideas? Thanks!
I don't seem to be able to upgrade to 'high sierra' so I can't confirm yet, but...
This sounds like it has to do with the :set mouse=a command. Type :set to view the current setting to the mouse= variable. There are a handful of modes for your mouse in vim. I think you want :set mouse=n. Type :help mouse in vim to see more info. Unfortunately I'm writing this on my phone and can't research/verify further. Hopefully :help mouse will give you the info you need to find the proper command to change your mouse behavior.
If :set mouse=n fixes your problem then add set mouse=n to your ~/.vimrc file. Same command, without the colon.
