How to “copy to clipboard” in vim of Bash on Windows?

Question

I used to use \"+y to copy text to system\'s clipboard, but it doesn\'t work in vim of Bash on Windows.

Answer 1

vmap  y :w !clip.exe
"---------------------- :w !clip.exe
" The core command, thanks to Mitchell's answer.
"---------------------------------- 
" The first  closes the command;
" the second  suppresses "Press ENTER or type command to continue".
"--- :h map-silent
" This fix the flicker caused by external commands and .
"------------ :h leader
" `:echo mapleader` to view your leader key.

Standing on the shoulders of giants, I'm using the above solution now.
