on it should point you to the correct author...

in .gvimrc/.vimrc add

map <C-I> :!rm -f /tmp/*put<C-M> :w /tmp/input<C-M> :!/bin/ruby 
/tmp/input > /tmp/output 2>&1<C-M> :vs +e! /tmp/output<C-M><C-W>l

map <C-L> <C-W>o


short form of descriptions
<CTRL-I> execute and paste results in left side of vertical split
<CTRL-L><CTRL-W>  close left side of vertical split
