[MJ] - The below script (based on http://technotales.wordpress.com/2007/10/03/like-slime-for-vim/%|%Slime.vim%|%) defines some key bindings to execute contents of the current selection, paragraph or buffer in Vim in a running wish process using DDE. This is ideal for interactive developing where you can immediately test your changes.

Put the following somewhere as a vim plugin:


 """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
 let s:current_dir=expand("<sfile>:p:h")
 function Send_to_Tcl(text)
    if has('win32') || has('win64')
        let s:tcl_file = s:current_dir . "/ipc-win.tcl"
        if !exists("g:tcl_ipc_initialized")
            tcl package require dde
            let g:tcl_ipc_initialized = 1 
        endif
        let running = 0
        tcl ::vim::command "let running = [expr {[dde services TclEval vimsh] ne ""}]"
        if !running 
            execute "silent !cmd /c start wish " . s:tcl_file
        else 
            tcl dde eval vimsh [::vim::expr a:text]
        endif
    endif
 endfunction
 
 
 """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

 vmap <C-c><C-c> "ry :call Send_to_Tcl(@r)<CR>
 nmap <C-c><C-c> vip<C-c><C-c>
 nmap <C-c><C-b> :call Send_to_Tcl(join(getline(1,'$'), "\n"))<CR>


Put the following script in ipc-win.tcl in the same directory as the plugin file:

 package require dde
 dde servername vimsh

That's it now C-c C-c will send the current selection (or the paragraph if there is no selection) and C-c C-b will send the whole buffer.

Of course this requires a Vim built with Tcl support (if_tcl) and wish in the path.
