Copy and paste from status line

Hi all,
In gVim (at least my version, which uses GTK), you can select text in the status line, but how can you copy it? Or maybe you can't?

See :help c_CTRL-Y. It works anywhere I suspect, at least in the gui. On Thu, Dec 10, 2020 at 12:28 PM Johannes Degen <[hidden email]> wrote:

Yes, the |modeless-selection| is the only way to select text not wholly inside one split-window (e.g. including status line(s) and/or the command-line). This is possible in gvim; in some terminals the terminal will preempt mouse drags and not pass them to Vim: if your terminal is of that kind you will have to either copy the selection the way it is done in that particular terminal, or else switch to gvim, where Ctrl+Y copies the modeless selection (if there is one) to the clipboard. Best regards, Tony. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
