Hi, I'm able to run !mkdir.. etc. I was thinking something similar to emacs where I can have a different tab? open where I can compile my files, keep working for 2 weeks and search back through the text for the first command I typed in. But I guess its a design decision whether or not to add this functionality to vim.

Vim is an editor, not a shell, command line interface or windowing system. You can already do ":!cmd", that should be sufficient. -- From "know your smileys": [:-) Frankenstein's monster /// Bram Moolenaar -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ download, build and distribute -- http://www.A-A-P.org /// \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org ///
