+## Clipboard in WSL without xclip
+
+- This is a WSL specific setting to use the Windows clipboard for + and * registers
+- If you have the default PowerShell, substitute pwsh.exe with powershell.exe 
+
+```lua
+vim.g.clipboard = {
+  name = 'WslClipboard',
+  copy = {
+    ['+'] = 'clip.exe',
+    ['*'] = 'clip.exe',
+  },
+  paste = {
+    ['+'] = 'pwsh.exe -c [Console]::Out.Write($(Get-Clipboard -Raw).tostring().replace("`r", ""))',
+    ['*'] = 'pwsh.exe -c [Console]::Out.Write($(Get-Clipboard -Raw).tostring().replace("`r", ""))',
+  },
+  cache_enabled = 0,
+}
