I suspect you want something like

This one worked the way I expected - thanks!
I'll throw in the obligatory caution that the "*" is an
actual Vim command (and thus useful...I employ it nearly
daily). You might want use "<leader>" to map it to
something like
vnoremap <leader>= :!par<cr> vnoremap <leader>g=
:!par<space>
which is designed more for a purpose like this.
The second one should, after you highlight some lines, leave
you on a line that reads something like
:'<,'>!par_
(where "_" is a space) where you can enter additional
parameters for par.
I never encountered "<leader>" before; I have just read :h
on <Leader> but don't seem to be much wiser :(
I've had trouble implemented your suggestion (I _would_ like
to preserve "*" for its intended vim usage). After putting
those two lines into .vimrc, and selecting some lines
(linewise select), what do I do to 'run' the command? [I tried
g and ,g -- didn't really know what else to do] Sorry to be so
clueless...
Thanks,

First, run (in normal mode):
:let mapleader
That command will reveal the key you currently have configured to be
your <Leader>. Assuming the output of the above command is:
mapleader ,
You should then be able to execute the first command by going:
v
[moving around for selection]
,=
For the second command, replace ",=" above with ",g=".
The <Leader> defaults to \ on some installations, I believe.
