In my experience the major problem with running external apps like
those listed above is filenames -- e.g. when I use cygwin tools from
windows gvim or when I want to use the same code to run an executable
on linux and windows etc. I don't consider the cmd window a major
problem since it's often minimized anyway.
IMHO a "portable way" would have to include a way to filter filenames
(e.g. when using cygwin, I'd like to pass them to cygpath -u before
running the command). Such a function call could then look like:
call foo#fexecute('%x -9 %f', 'gzip', expand('%')), where %f expands
to a filename,
