Re: include prompt when executing a shell command

Hej,

this is not a particularly nice solution, but depending on what you're
actually doing it might suffice. :)

:command -nargs=1 Read :read bash -c 'echo "`whoami`@`hostname`:`pwd` \$ "; <args>'

Instead of the ":read..." you could also just call a function and do
something more elaborate there.

See
:help command
:help function
:help functions

Regards,
Kai.

PS:
> : read !cat hola
Didn't know that, made my day :)
