Always duplicate yanked text to system clipboard

Question

I'm using neovim 0.8.2

Is there a way to automatically mirror last yanked text to system clipboard, regardless of which register I used to yank it to? So if I run something like "ayiw I will have it yanked both to a register and to +?

I was thinking of utilizing TextYankPost autocommand to set let @+ = @... to the content of last used register, but how do I get the name of the last used register?

Answer 1

I believe you could achieve that with:

set clipboard=unnamedplus

More information about unnamedplus with :help unnamedplus

A variant of the "unnamed" flag which uses the
clipboard register '+' (|quoteplus|) instead of
register '*' for all yank, delete, change and put
operations which would normally go to the unnamed
register.  When "unnamed" is also included to the
option, yank operations (but not delete, change or
put) will additionally copy the text into register
'*'.
Only available with the |+X11| feature.
