I apologize if this is not Fedora-specific, but I've got a desktop
question. When I want to save some text, I'll highlight it and hit ctl-c
or to copy it or ctl-v to paste it. Is there anything analogous to
"named registers" in vim that will allow me to copy into different
buffers (or, in vim, registers) so I can grab and paste from multiple
instances?
If it makes a difference, I'm running Fedora 20 with KDE 4.
Klipper is included with the Fedora KDE spin by default, and while it
doesn't really have _named_ registers it does save a list of the last
N items you copied and makes them available for easy pasting. For
more information, see:
http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kde-workspace/klipper/
If that doesn't quite fit your needs there are of course a multitude
of other options:

I have set Klipper to save 500 entries. It is triggered with a Ctrl+` on my
system. And you could search through the Klipper history just by typing. If
you enable "synchronize primary selection with clipboard" you will never have
to do Ctrl-C to copy just select and it will be copied. And then you can
trigger Klipper anywhere your mouse is by using shortcut Ctrl+`, search and
paste.
Thanks, guys. This is exactly what I was looking for.
