In answering a question just now, I mentioned using a normal mode key mapping that can be found at the Vim Tips Wiki. In the middle of explaining the key mapping, I realized that I had no idea what <Bar>
meant. What does it mean?
I tried replacing it with a pipe |
, with and without spaces before, around, and after it, but each one broke my .vimrc
file with the following error message:
Error detected while processing /home/bottomsc/.vimrc:
line 173:
