title: How do I paste from PuTTY into Vim 8.0?
body: <h2>Scenario</h2>
  
  <p>From a Windows 10 Anniversary Update client ...</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Open a web browser, copy / paste some text from a website (eg. GitHub)</li>
  <li>Use PuTTY 0.67 to SSH to a Linux VM (eg. Ubuntu 16 Xenial Xerus)</li>
  <li>Open a file in Vim</li>
  <li>Hit <code>i</code> to change into Insert mode</li>
  <li>Right-click to paste the clipboard contents</li>
  </ul>
  
  <h2>Issue</h2>
  
  <p>Unfortunately, when I right-click in the PuTTY session, rather than pasting clipboard contents, what's actually happening is that Vim is going from <code>INSERT</code> mode to <code>(insert) VISUAL</code> mode. I don't think I've ever seen anything like this before.</p>
  
  <h2>Question</h2>
  
  <p>Does anyone know why this is happening, and how I can paste my Windows client clipboard into the SSH / Vim session?</p>
