Re: a small plugin for :call system() in vim

Dear Vimers,

I have a simple question. Since I want to mentain a nice history for the
plugin proposed below. The idea is to add history entry for the command
that was given by the user, then the plugin changes it to :call system()
and this is also remembered in the history. I'd like to remove this
entry from the history but ShellFilterPost autocommand is not fired in
this case (since we do not run a command throgh :!). So the question is
how to delete the last history item (via autocommand). I thought that it
would be nice to disable history and then reset it back, but there is
the same problem: how to reset it back (and as far as I can see, setting
'history' to 0 will cut the history).

Best regards,
Marcin Szamotulski
