Conque is a Vim plugin allowing users to execute and interact with programs, typically a shell such as bash, inside a buffer window. The goal is always to keep the terminal behavior as close as possible to its native interface, while adding the additional features of Vim on top.
Updates
Version 0.4 released (2009-10-29)
Conque 0.4 available for download.
Installation
Copy files from conque/ into your .vim directory, for example:
$HOME/.vim/plugin/conque.vim $HOME/.vim/syntax/conque.vim $HOME/.vim/autoload/conque.vim $HOME/.vim/autoload/subprocess.vim $HOME/.vim/autoload/subprocess/proc_py.vim $HOME/.vim/autoload/subprocess/shell_translate.vim
Usage
Type :Conque <command> to run your command in vim, for example:
:Conque bash :Conque mysql -h localhost -u joe -p sock_collection :Conque ipython
To open Conque in a new horizontal or vertical buffer use:
:ConqueSplit <command> :ConqueVSplit <command>
Use insert mode to send commands to the shell. Use the <Tab> key to get more output from the shell. Conque is set to only a 40 milisecond timeout by default, so you will likely need to use the <Tab> key frequently.
