Hi Jorge,
Vim does its job, and after quitting vim I get:
Actually, you are getting the Vim: Reading from stdin... first, and then Vim
does it's job.
When Vim quits, it restores the screen (available in some termcaps), which
includes the prior Vim message that it was reading from stdin.
I believe it is possible to change Vim's termination behavior such that it
does not restore the screen, rather it does a screen clear or just drops the
cursor to the bottom of the screen and exit (keeping the rest of just-quit
Vim's screen contents onscreen, except for the top line or two which may
scroll off, depending on your PS1 or PROMPT setting).
That would be worse than the message! I don't want the remains of the
vim session visible. The problem is the message, which shouldn't be send
to sdtin in the first place. Ah, well...
But that's different from the other poster's issue, where Vim would hang
(i.e., not "do its job").
I think I didn't receive those mails...

Thanks,
