I kept hearing a weird 'purr' sound effect while navigating folders in vim's netrw, and eventually traced it down to Alfred's clipboard merging functionality getting triggered somehow.
I don't see it in the default vim that comes with Yosemite (7.3), but I do see it in a homebrew install of vim 7.4, and in Neovim. It occurs whether I use iTerm or Terminal.
To reproduce, I can just launch Terminal, type 'vim .', and carry on hitting '-' to travel up a folder (or j/k/enter to drill down to a different folder). It doesn't happen every time the current folder changes, maybe one time in 3? When it happens, I hear Alfred's clipboard merge sound effect, and Alfred's latest clipboard item gets merged with the current system's clipboard.
I'm running OS X 10.10.2, with Alfred 2.6. Any idea what's happening here?
