A terminal/shell buffer script for python enabled [g]vim (+python).  Allows execution of shell commands in a vim buffer. It does not use r! <cmd>.   Some of it's features:       - It retains state because it's interactive.  For example, set an environment variable and it "stays" because the          shell process is the same through the whole session.       - It can run interactive line based programs like ftp/telnet/python/ssh/etc including masked password input (pty supported platform only).       - Since it's a vim buffer you can go into normal mode and move around the buffer, yank, paste, use word completion, etc       - Runs on Linux and Windows, primary development and testing is done on Linux.  Windows has limitations          ( no interactive programs ) due to lack of pty support.        Requirements: To use it you must have a python enabled [g]vim and run on a platform that supports pty ( i.e. Linux ), or pipes ( Windows, Linux, et all ). The pty version has much better formatted output than the pipes version and supports running interactive programs.  Please read vimsh.readme for other installation details.  Tested on vim 6.0 using Slackware and Gentoo Linux, FreeBSD, and Windows XP.   I'd also like to hear from users running other operating systems, i.e. QNX/Solaris/other BSDs. !!!!! WINDOWS USERS !!!!!, there is a zip file available at the above link. The version kept here on vimonline is a tarred, gzipped file ( tar.gz ). If you are going to use Winzip with the .tar.gz file be sure to turn off the "Tar file smart CR/LF handling". It doesn't work well. Please send me bug reports and suggestions if you use it.  I appreciate all the patches I've been getting lately!
