So, I wanted to be able to execute my python code within Vim so I went here: Running Python code in Vim and found the answer. I mainly try to work within GNU Screen and that was the way I was working when I added the following code to my .vimrc: nnoremap <buffer> <F9> :exec '!python' shellescape(@%, 1)<cr>. This line in my .vimrc works great within Vim via GNU Screen, but I'd like to also have it work without using Screen, which is my issue.
For example, if I run a simple Python program
greeting = "Hello"
print (greeting)
name = input("Please enter your name: ")
print(greeting + " " + name)
and press F9, it exits Vim and prompts me at the terminal. In Screen, it prompts me in the buffer (at the bottom of Vim), which is the desired behavior. Anyone have this issue or would know how to fix this?
Here is my .vimrc (and .bashrc) file, the line of code is on line 43. I have it set for python3 but it exhibits the same behavior, regardless of the version of Python I have it set to.
