How to execute ahk (AutoHotScripts) scripts using gVim?

Let say I have interpreter:

"C:\Program Files\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe" /ErrorStdOut "d:\ahk\myscript.ahk" 2>"Syntax-Error Log.txt"

While I am in normal mode in gVim I press leader s. Screen divides into two windows. New window with Error Stream shows at the bottom. Similar to every IDE behaviour when you run/debug program.

Window focus should stay at the window with ahk script. If everything is OK, then ahk script is executed.

I manage to do partial solution, but still there is problem with, nesting errorlog windows, and cmd.exe that hangs after execution.

noremap <leader>s :!"C:\Program Files\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe" /ErrorStdOut \ %:p 2>"errorlog.txt"<CR> :sp errorlog.txt<CR><C-W>J<CR> :resize 5<CR>

    Try using: :!start instead of just :! to suppress the cmd.exe window.
