I'm currently unable to complete a shell out from the 64-bit Windows version of

Tried cmd.exe and cygwin's bash.exe. Behavior is identical:

Opens a command window as "C:\Program Files\vim\vim72\wimrun.exe"
Shows something like this:
c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --rcfile c:/cygwin/home/paule/.bashex -i -c "sort"
Then just waits forever.

Any idea what's going on or even how to troubleshoot this?

Thanks,

There are lots of ways to invoke the shell from Vim. What SPECIFIC Vim command 
did you use?

And, what are the values of the options that affect "shelling out"; including

"  set shell : name of shell to use for ! and :! commands
" set shq : shellquote -- how to quote characters about the cmd passed to shell " set sxq : shellxquote -- includes redirection (shellquote excludes that) " set ssl : shellslash -- when set, forward slash used to expand file names " set shcf : shellcmdflag -- flag passed to shell to execute ! and :! commands " set sp : shellpipe -- string used to put output of :make into errorfile " set srr : shellredir -- string used to put output of filter cmd into temporary file
