Hello,

I'd like to get MacVim to give focus to a MacRuby program, which
accepts some input from the user via a GUI and then returns the input
(and focus) back to MacVim.

Right now I can get MacVim to execute a non-interactive Ruby program,
though when I try a console-based interactive Ruby program it simply
blocks MacVim indefinitely.  I think this is because the Ruby is
trying to interact with the user via stdin, and there's no console as
such when the program is launched via MacVim.  However I don't want to
get bogged down with this because my real aim is to interact with the
user via a MacRuby GUI.

So I just wanted to ask, before I embark on this, is it feasible?  If
so, what's the recommended way to launch another program and wait for
it to return something to MacVim?

Thanks and regards,

Andy Stewart
