Hi,

I'm running an external program `foo` from vim via `:!foo`. Whenever I
do, I see its stdout output scroll by, followed by a "Press ENTER or
type command to continue" prompt.

I'd like to not get that prompt unless the program's exit status is
non-zero. Otherwise, it should just signal success and let me keep
working. I don't care if the output gets dumped to the vim window,
although ideally there would be a way to disable that too.

Some more: the help mentions:

To reduce the number of hit-enter prompts:
- Set 'cmdheight' to 2 or higher.
- Add flags to 'shortmess'.
- Reset 'showcmd' and/or 'ruler'.

(see :help hit-enter)

Regards,
Chip Campbell
