:norm(al) command Allows you to do some of the vim magic also on remote systems where you don't have all your plugins.

Example:

(1) Select block with `C-v`

(2) Hit colon `:`

(3) Write norm and enter any sequence as you would be in normal mode: `norm I# ` (prepend selection with a comment sign)

(4) Admire the result.
