Use silent mappings where possible.

The Mapping() function was being called with ":<CR>" appended to every
mapping so that executing the mapping would not leave the expanded
command in the ruler.

On Vim 6 and later the correct way to execute the mapping discreetly is
to use <silent> and even on Vim 5 it is more appropriate to append the
":<CR>" within the Mapping() function.
