I'm having a problem with pasting on MacOS Sierra. When I copy text with newlines, I can paste it in a terminal without issue. e.g.: Text to be copied:
echo 'Foo'
echo 'Bar'
result from terminal (same in iTerm, Term using both bash and zsh):
[23:38:29] ~ $ echo 'Foo'
echo 'Bar'
Foo
Bar
result from vim within terminal
echo 'Foo'^Mecho 'Bar'^MFoo^MBar
As you see, the carriage return is interpreted as a literal string.
I have tried in pastemode
and fileformat=unix
My .vimrc

"*

registers, also,:.!pbpaste
on an empty line should work – hgiesel Jan 31 '17 at 0:18"* echo 'Foo'^Jecho 'Bar'
and"+
is not set.:.!pbpaste
did the trick... but why? I want to be able to paste using thecmd + v
shortcut in insert mode without mangling the line breaks. Thanks for insight so far @hgiesel – zsoobhan Jan 31 '17 at 11:57
