I don't know if this will help, but I've run an instance of vim to modify a file without intervention in a script like this: vim -X -E -s -u NONE -c ... -c 'wq' "$@" I think the -s is the key option for your purpose. You might be able to run something like that in the background, without the "-c 'wq'" of course.
