There are probably ways to set 'shellpipe', etc. so that the output
of make would not go to the screen. However, since you are not
going to be using any of the features of the :make command anyway, I
think it would be much easier to write a shell script to execute
your make command, or just run the make command from the vim command
line like this:
:!make > make.out 2>&1 &
One way to know when it's done is (assuming you're running X) to
follow the make command with an xmessage command and put them
together in the background, like this:
:!{ make > make.out 2>&1; xmessage 'make done'; } &
