Is there a way to run the commands in -c "YOUR COMMANDS HERE" whithout
getting gvim to flash the window (open than immediately close it) ?

I read about mkvimball and vimball.rb on the Vim tips wiki, but I would
rather not add new dependencies in my project (C compiler/ruby) if Vim
can get the job done. And it can, except it does not do a very nice job
with that flashing window that pops up...
