Recently gvim has had the annoying habit of inserting messages in the
text of the document being edited, such as
:confirm wqa
Sometimes they are longer.
I don't see anything glaringly obvious in your supplied vimrc
files that would trigger such behavior. However, there's a
possiblity that some plugin/filetype file is causing the problem.
The answers to a few questions might help narrow down where the
problem originates:
-does this happen in one particular type of file but not in
others (such as in *.tex or *.xyz but not in others)
-does it only happen in one mode? (only in insert-mode? only in
normal-mode? only in visual-mode?)
-are there any keys you're hitting immediately before this
happens (perhaps an errant mapping or triggering a menu option?)
-larger sample-sets of the resulting inserted text might help
narrow it down to a problematic plugin too
-when it *does* happen, some post-mortem knowledge of the output
from the following would be helpful:
:scriptnames
:map
:autocmd CursorHold
:autocmd CursorHoldI
:autocmd CursorMoved
:autocmd CursorMovedI
:menu
:ab
(there might be other "autocmd" sections of interest, but those
are the likely culprits)
Hope this helps,

let cobol_legacy_code = 1
Sorry 'bout that...I don't put Cobol on my resume, even though I
did some maint projects a number of years ago...unpleasant
memories :)
