I THINK that command is basically causing Vim to do s/$/^M^M/ which SHOULD work, but it's better written as s/$/\r\r/ which would not have any literal byte values in it. I don't know python, but I imagine this would accomplish the latter:

I did try sourcing this file in Windows gvim 7.3.661:

python << EOF
import vim
vim.command('s/$/\x0D\x0D/')
EOF


I did NOT get any ^M characters inserted into my text, but I DID get search highlight turned on. So possibly the only change needed is the 'nohls' command, or even better a save/restore of the last search.
