	i wanted to use pipe character \| – najam Jan 5 '11 at 11:38
	pipe character is typed using shift+\ so needed code for shift :) – najam Jan 5 '11 at 11:38
	`<bar>` is the pipe character `\|`, check out `:help bar` ... or do you mean 'i want pipe to trigger the sequence'? – akira Jan 5 '11 at 13:00
