This does NOT work with files opened in several tabs (put in ~/.vimrc obviously):

noremap <F5> :wa<CR> <bar> :!global_stack_build_run.sh<CR>

Neither it works when I use | instead of <bar>.

It appears to run only :wa.

    Are you sure this does not work? According to the documentation :help map_bar using <bar> should work. A simple mapping did just work. Try removing the <cr> from your mapping and see if it will be put into the command line

  • @ChristianBrabandt Thank you! Indeed removing <cr> after wa: worked: noremap <F5> :wa <bar> :!global_stack_build_run.sh<CR>. Consider it an answer.
