Prevents ack output to bleed into the host terminal.

Hope this won’t get merged. Details in issue #18.

@ZyX-I : I see. Thanks for jumping in and commenting.

I'm going to close this until we can find a more universal solution.

@mileszs I already pointed to it: system() (probably something like readsystem if you expect NUL bytes in output), setqflist/setloclist and parsing of ack output without the help of vim (I mean 'errorformat' option).

From my point of view this is not the thing you should bother about, just add non-universal solution to the doc saying that it should be set in the vimrc and disable intrusive behavior for all :*grep* commands, not just in this plugin. It already should not bother cmd.exe users, dash ones will be satisfied with changing &> to 2>&1 > (works in bash and zsh as well) and tcsh have to deduce something else.

After using this patch, :Ack still jumps out of vim. (Nothing is written to the terminal, though). This could be avoided by doing: "set t_ti= t_te=". But then vim is seen in the terminal after pressing ctrl-z.
