I use Vim and Quickfix to compile C++ programs. I have set

as the compiler. My problem is that while compiling, vim goes to
the console, distracting me. I don't need the console, if I use
Quickfix! I would like it to stay in the buffer window.
I made the following map:
map silent EscEsc :echohl WildMenucr:echon Compiling
file...cr:silent! makecr:cw 4crC-wUp:echohl Nonecr:echo
crc-l
that works great in gvim. It stays in the buffer, printing a bottom
message Compiling file... while compiling. But this does not work
for vim (console).
How can I avoid vim to leave the buffer while compiling, without
making something like ':silent !g++..., since I want to use Quickfix?
What about background compilation ? Your program can be compiled in
background while you will still be able to do whatever you whish in vim.
This topic has been discussed a few months ago. So far I know two
scripts able to acheive background compilation from vim.
I'm maintening one of them [1]. The result consists in a perl script
(which means perl is required, as well vim compiled to support remote
invocation through |+clientserver|) and a few VimL functions maintened
in a plugin that is still in alpha stage (the plugin does many more
things related to the management of compilation chains).
HTH,
