Program Python in VIM

30.1. Can I run a shell inside a Vim window?

Currently Vim doesn't have support for running shell and other external
commands inside a Vim window.

For more information, read

   :help shell-window

Alternatively, you can try using the Unix  "screen" utility or the 'splitvt'
program.

You can also use the vimsh plugin by Brian Sturk to run a shell in a Vim
window. To use this you need to have Vim built with python support. For
more information visit the following URL:
