@pludi, not sure if :set paste works in vi. It may be valid only in vim.
@alok, the option that scottn had suggested earlier should work fine (both in vi and vim).
Try this:Note: The nosm may not be needed. It shows matching braces/parens as you paste, if that option is turned on, by default. It may slow down the paste.

- Start vi
- type :set noai nosm
- hit Enter
- hit i (for insert mode)
- now paste from the clipboard.
