Sure, you can remap it to :, but, in my experience, in the long term it is better not to change Vim's default mappings (this is a matter of personal taste, of course), except when their functionality is replicated by other mappings (as in the next paragraph). -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.

'w' : 'W') Testing getcmdtype() avoids lowercasing the W in a search command, and testing getcmdpos() allows doing it only near the left margin. A user-command is more elegant however; but in order to make it behave like the w command you may want to define that :W command with the appropriate parameters, as follows (untested): :command -nargs=* -complete=file -range=% -bang -bar W ,w which, after all, makes it somewhat less elegant; so you may choose a command or an abbrev to suit youor taste.
