Hi Arup,

This is something that I had previously wanted to do and I spent some
time working on a solution. The following steps worked for me:

" Open a new window.
:new

" I personally prefer a vertical window openging to the right:
:set splitright
:vertical new

" This new window is essentially a temporary scratch buffer.
" You can make sure that a swapfile isn't created for it
" or that the buffer isn't associated with a file.
" See http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Vim_buffer_FAQ
:setlocal buftype=nofile
:setlocal bufhidden=hide
:setlocal noswapfile

" read input from the shell command using the alternate file.
:r!ruby #

If you want to do this regularly, the above commands could easily be
turned into a function and run with a keyboard mapping -- or you could
add a BufWritePost autocommand to have it run automatically whenever
you write to the file you're working on.

I ended up writing a function that accepted any command but I don't
want to overcomplicate the solution for you.

Regards,
Anthony
