Could you point me/us in the direction as to how to set this up? I've been trying to emulate this function from Emacs ever since I've seen it in action. I'd lov

  The manpage for screen should tell you how to send commands to the screen session (the -X option, I believe). You just need to create a function/binding in Vim that tells screen to create a new 'window' and run that test suite in that 'window.' Screen is basically a terminal multiplexer. This would work a little differently if you were using gVim instead of Vim (from within the same screen session that you're sending the test suite command to). If you were using gVim you'd need to use a named screen session (the -S option) and send the screen command to the named session (and possible have logic in the Vim/gVim function to start a named session if one doesn't already exist). Then you'd need a separate terminal window attached to that screen session to view the test suite output. Do a search for vim and REPL or SLIME for articles like this: http://technotales.wordpress.com/2007/10/03/like-slime-for-vim/ http://technotales.wordpress.com/2007/10/03/like-slime-for-v... These articles use the vim+screen combo to send commands to an interpreter, but you can use the same concepts to send your test suite to a screen session.
