Re: Showing shell output in GVim's window

With this option, I get:

winpty-agent Createprocess failed:

followed by an invocation of winpty-agent with a pipe name
and --create-desktop. At the end it says: "err=0xc1". I
don't know how to copy this error message from GVim's
window.

If you meant the redirection of stdin, stdout, and stderr,
then what is the problem? I have recently written a cross-
platform program in Pascal that runs an extermal command
with redirected input and outputs. On Windows, it starts
the external process using CreateProcess(), then enters a
loop where it polls the output handles without blocking with
PeekNamedPipe() and ReadFile(), and writes to the input
handle with WriteFile(). PeekNamedPipe() does work with
anonymous pipes.
