Re: How to combine windo/tabdo with a shortcutted command?

If you're duplicating keystrokes you might hit in normal mode, the command is :normal, so something like might work:

tabdo windo normal dd

tabdo windo normal Ihello<esc>

Hi Tim,

thanks for your reply!

Is there a more general way to acchieve this?

If I would had asked:
"I have a command, which is known by its shortcut only: How can I
execute this command for each tab or each window by using tabdo or
window respectively?"

Is there an answer even if the command itsself is not know first hand?

Cheers!
