Hello,

I'm new to Vim. I want to change the character before commands. For example
saving is done by:

:w <enter>

Can it be made slightly easier by just pressing 'g' or some other key that's
not taken? I don't know why every command has to be pre-pended by a
difficult to reach character like colon. In an old text editor (I think one
by Borland), you could save by pressing just one key, i.e. F2. 

This isn't a flame.. I just want to do simple commands like save, quit, save
and quit, etc. with fewer than four keys. One key like 'g' or F2 or
something would be awesome. Ctrl + key would be nice too. 

Thanks,
--
