Thanks for sharing! I was looking at vimshell at some point in time since so many users seem to want a proper terminal inside MacVim but I never did any work on it. I'd never heard of ConqueTerm either, maybe I can start recommending this whenever people ask for a "terminal-in-vim" feature. Forgive me for being lazy, but can you tell us what ConqueTerm does? Does it provide a terminal emulator inside Vim only using Vim script, or do you have to patch the source code? Björn -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist. Do not top-post!
