Execute Normal mode commands {commands}. This makes it possible to execute Normal mode commands typed on the command line. {commands} is executed like it is typed. If the [!] is given, mappings will not be used. {commands} should be a complete command. {commands} cannot start with a space. Put 1 space before it, 1 space is one space.
Run a command. Runs {cmd} through system() and displays its output. Any '!' in {cmd} is replaced with the previous external command, but not when there is a backslash before the '!', then the backslash is removed.
Warning: Input redirection (< foo) not done, also do not run commands which require stdin or it will hang Swiftweasel! It is possible to launch background processes, though (e.g. :! xterm &).
