That's not making any statement about "focus returning", sure.
Having MacVim opened ':!open -a TextEdit -W %' opens current file in
TextEdit
and waits until TextEdit is closed. Sure, this example is quiet
silly, but for
demonstration purposes it seemed to be good enough to me :-)
Nice! That's exactly what I'm after.
I thought I knew how `open` worked: next time I'll be sure to check
the man page.
Thanks and regards,
