Spawning a new process in Windows is slow, spawn a cygwin process in Windows is even slower. And this really has nothing to do with vim. The native way for co-operating programs in Windows is to use IPC or load DLL. For example, libcall() runs much faster than system() in vim for Windows. use libcall() to do what we want is often more difficult, but this works faster. It seems that there had been a script for that. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
