Hi. I spent the last couple days porting the vimshell patch to macvim and
its finally working:

I started with Eugeni Dodonov's (g)vim7.2 version of the patch (
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vimshell/vimshell/) which is based
on Thomas Wana's original work (http://www.wana.at/vimshell/).

I've got the basics working, including support for colors inside the shell,
but there are still a number of features missing (imho) before vimshell can
replace Terminal.app:

  - support for text selection via mouse
  - copy/paste support
  - ctrl+c doesn't currently work inside the vimshell
  - a scrollback buffer

I was planning on adding these, however, I just discovered ConqueTerm (
http://code.google.com/p/conque/) which is already far superior to what I'd
hoped this vimshell patch would become.

I'm putting my work up on github in case anyone is interested, but I no
longer plan on pursuing this:
http://github.com/tmm1/macvim_vimshell/compare/9787b37...master

Note: my branch is based off of Bjorn's new macvim73 branch (
http://github.com/b4winckler/macvim/commits/macvim73).
