Installation

1. Clone this repository to your ~/.config/ directory. If the directory does not exist, create it.
2. Rename the local repository to nvim so the path reflects ~/.config/nvim

WinYank

Win32Yank is a powerful utility that enables seamless synchronization between your Vim/Neovim clipboard and the Windows system clipboard. To set up this tool effectively, some modifications are necessary depending on your system configuration.

Begin by downloading the latest version of win32yank-x64.zip. Once downloaded, extract the contents of the zip file and save the win32yank.exe file in a permanent location. By default it is set to a dedicated folder within the Public Users directory called WSLPlugins.

If using a custom location, locate the init.lua file in your Neovim configuration directory, typically found at ~/.config/nvim. In this file, you will need to modify the following code snippet to reflect the path where you saved win32yank.exe. Ensure that the path is formatted to navigate through the Windows file system mount in Linux (i.e., /mnt).

local win32yank_path = '/mnt/c/Users/Public/WSLPlugins/win32yank.exe'
vim.o.clipboard = 'unnamedplus'
vim.g.clipboard = {
   name = 'win32yank-wsl',
   copy = {
      ['+'] = win32yank_path .. ' -i --crlf',
      ['*'] = win32yank_path .. ' -i --crlf',
   },
   paste = {
      ['+'] = win32yank_path .. ' -o --lf',
      ['*'] = win32yank_path .. ' -o --lf',
   },
   cache_enabled = 0,
}

Make sure to replace the paths in the code with the actual location of your win32yank.exe file.

By following these steps, you will successfully configure Win32Yank to enhance your clipboard functionality between Vim/Neovim and Windows.
