norm

Normal command

Consider this piece of text

return {
    name,
    cargo_type,
    fame,
}

• visually select the text inside return and run the following :norm f,i.append()
• This will run the jey stroke sequence f,i.append() on the selected text, resulting in the following text

return {
    name.append(),
    cargo_type.append(),
    fame.append(),
}

• go one step ahead and combine complex key strokes, again visually select the text inside return
• :norm ^yt.f(a"^[pa" will result in following text (you have to press ctrl-v followed by escape key on keyboard to get escape keystroke ^[)

return {
    name.append("name"),
    cargo_type.append("cargo_type"),
    fame.append("fame"),
}
