How to run a bash one liner within nvim

Question

I am running the latest version of nvim on the latest version of arch.

I have this bash one liner which works as intended

echo; lpstat -p | sed 's/printer //g' | sed 's/is idle.  enabled since.*//g'; echo"

I wish to assign the above command to a keyboard shortcut within nvim and run it within nvim so that it drops the result within the currently open nvim text file

Here is what I have in .vimrc

nnoremap <leader><leader>p :!echo; lpstat -p | sed 's/printer //g' | sed 's/is idle.  enabled since.*//g'; echo

but it does not work

How do I wrap the bash command up so it is treated as a one liner then get it to drop the result into the open text file at the cursor?

Answer 1

Here is the solution. What I needed to do was

1. insert an r to read the result of the bash one liner into the current file, and
2. escape the two occurances of | with \|

" below gets current list of printers  
nnoremap <leader><leader>p :r !echo; lpstat -p \| sed 's/printer //g' \| sed 's/is idle.  enabled since.*//g'; echo<cr>
