Find attached a simple patch (against svn head) to execute a shell command using
'!' (as in vi or mutt). It requires the 'session' gem: if you want to get rid of
that dependency you can just capture the output using >& etc.
It works for me. If I did something wrong, let me know.

I like this functionality but the session gem seems like it's overkill
here. Is there a reason to use it instead of just something like
output = `#{cmd}`
? I'm not that familiar with the gem, so maybe there is.
Also I think the code for this should be in bin/sup rather than in
scroll-mode.rb, since, unless I'm mistaken, it's not specific to
scroll-mode at all.

I also wanted to catch error output, to find out if an unexisting command was
invoked, and I didn't know how to do that with ``?

Agree. Wasn't sure where to put it, actually.

Shouldnt this be possible with open3? The only problem is that open3
is unix only (in std ruby). I think there is a win32 open3 gem though.
