Yes, this is related.
In fact, I want to have the usual screen flipping AND I want to see
the final :!echo printouts. The strange thing happens with :!echo.
They are not seen when in Vimleave. They are printed in the
curses-mode screen, which is weird. In all other places in vim,
:!echo is printed in "shell-screen".
Is it a vim bug ? I'd prefer a vim function that prints to "original
screen".
I tried to add set t_ti= t_te= to the PrintAtExit() function, this did
not help me.
