Shell in VIM Solved

I found a great solution to the shell in vim problem. Namely, don’t have a shell in vim. Instead, I’ve been using Terminator. Terminator allows you to quickly split the terminal window either vertically or horizontally, much in the same way as vim’s sp and vsp commands. This way I can run vim in the top half and my interpreter in the bottom half. This has worked very well while programming in Python and Lisp. It’s also not dependent on the vim build or the plugins installed on vim. I can run vim and the interpreter remotely via parallel SSH sessions.
