Thanks, but ! doesn’t quite work for this purpose; I want to stay within Vim and just have output show up where I get other messages (in Vim), whereas ! suspends Vim until the command has finished. (I have used <c-z> to get at the shell from Vim and then return to it, but I wanted something which doesn’t require me to do that.) -- b Sent from my iPhone -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
