Neovim emoji paste support

by ipatch 6 years ago

macOS ◆ tmux-256color ◆ fish 839 views

Just trying to figure out why “copy” / “paste” of emojis when using Neovim or Vim doesn’t properly paste the emoji, using the key combo “⌘+v” in iTerm2 on macOS 10.13.5

FWIW, "+p seems to properly paste the emoji stored in the register.
