I don't know about 2 and 3, but after sourcing AnsiEscPlugin.vim,
you need to execute the :AnsiEsc command. You will also need to
have AnsiEsc.vim in your autoload directory. You may also need to
source, or just have in your plugin directory, the cecutil.vim
script. I get errors from the :AnsiEsc command if I don't also
source cecutil.vim.
