*Usage*

map y <Plug>(highlightedyank)

If you want to optimize highlight duration, use g:highlightedyank_highlight_duration , b:highlightedyank_highlight_duration. Assign number of time in milli seconds.

let g:highlightedyank_highlight_duration = 1000

If a negative number is assigned, the highlight would get persistent.

let g:highlightedyank_highlight_duration = -1

When a new text is yanked, the old highlighting would be deleted. Or when former lines are edited, the highlighting would be deleted to prevent shifting the position, also.

The latest version is available here. https://github.com/machakann/vim-highlightedyank
