i want able copy things in browser , have available in vim register can paste them @ will. currently, paste browser need right click on vim window , select 'paste' option. messes textual alignment , kind of defeats whole purpose of using vim. how can make things copy in browser added vim registers?

you should able use *and/or + registers. :help registers:

7. selection , drop registers "*, "+ , "~  use these registers storing , retrieving selected text gui. see |quotestar| , |quoteplus|.  when clipboard not available or not working, unnamed register used instead.  unix systems clipboard available when |+xterm_clipboard| feature present.  {not in vi}  note there distinction between "* , "+ x11 systems.  explanation of difference, see |x11-selection|.  under ms-windows, use of "* , "+ synonymous , refers |gui-clipboard|. 

if require pasting during insert mode, use :set paste before pasting , :set nopaste after no longer need paste text. option disable many auto-formatting features, such pasted text appears copied it.
