As an example, consider vim -c "echo 'hello'" -c "sleep 3" -c q which will run vim, show "hello" in the messages, wait 3 seconds, and then quit. So, you presumably could vim -c "call MyFunction()" -c q and vim will run your function. Now, I agree with Marc that I don't really know what you mean by running vim via an "external system call". How do you intend to launch vim? If by an icon, you presumably could set its "properties" so as to run vim with the -c arguments as I showed. If you're using cygwin or the dos-shell, again, you could run vim as shown (you may need to specify the full path). I also agree with Marc that you can't really interact with vim via an external interface other than via the client-server or netbeans mechanisms (well, mostly not; I've managed to put together something that lets gdb talk to vim under linux/unix systems).

Yes that's the good answer.
Thank you
