Exactly. My EMR is in Python3 and I run it in iTerm2 on MacOS (+Homebrew).
I could use Macvim but then I'd be going between two windows. (PITA) There is no way to make Macvim the host (display) for my Python program? That way I (might) be able to just use Macvim. BTW : thanks for your great work and dedication to this fine tool!
