+Additionally, I've set vim to use the clipboard as the default buffer, which means when you copy or delete something in vim, it will be in your system clipboard as well, so you can \f(CWctrl-v\fP it into your Firefox instance, etc. You can also paste material copied from other programs into vim with the typical vim bindings.
