Re: what does & mean in the vim command?

I'm not sure where you see this but usually it means you have to press "f" after <F6>. That is, to invoke the command, you have to press the sequence <F6> followed by an "f".

This allows a choice of commands from the <F6> key. For example, there may be <F6>a, <F6>b, ... commands which can be invoke by pressing the corresponding letter after the <F6>.
