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

Beijing and image manipulation addict Salam, Image manipulation with command line is fun and time consuming too. Given my Digikam plugins unable to work, I start to figure out many wonderful features of other tool which offer almost the same quality. However I was stucked with ImageMagick,with many tutorial on the net: Here and Here for i in *jpg ;do convert -font helvetica -fill white -pointsize 18 -draw 'text 10,50 "ACM-ICPC Beijing 2005"' $i $i;done The pix above shows a heater to heat up guest room during ACM-ICPC competition. (outside building's temperature is almost 4 celcious).
