I use evil
and have gotten used to accessing the registers via :registers
(in normal-mode
).
This works fine for me except when I attempt to yank a URL or filename into a minibuffer prompt. In trying to fix this issue, I learned about Emacs registers, but they apparently have no relationship to the ones in evil
, i.e. M-x view-register 3
will be empty while evil
register 3 contains a snippet of text. It seems like the two types of register are totally separate, is this the case?
