How to solve copy-paste issue in VIM (especially Arch Linux/Manjaro Linux)

1- Install gvim (it'll invoke the normal anyway, not the GTK version)
2- Put set clipboard=unnamed in your $HOME/.vimrc
3- Save and test it out. Now you can happily use your mouse

(Otherwise, we will need to use the Shift press button whenever we want to copy and paste.. which is troublesome - at least for me!!!)

Now problem solved. Thanks

Vultr - another reliable alternative for SEA Virtual Private Server!

I have been using Vultr  as my recent VPS now, since it has just a nearby Data Center in Singapore (sadly, Malaysian VPS is always expensive.. so the best option is DC in Singapore - most of the time). It provides free trial credit for around USD5.. and +USD2 if you did a social media integration/sharing with Twitter. Try it now. Click Vultr
