You just have to give
:command Q qSimilarly, you can do for other commands like,
:command WQ wq
:command W w 3 This worked perfectly for me:
:command-bang Q q<bang>From vim's help (:h command-bang):
Special cases :command-bang :command-bar :command-register :command-buffer
There are some special cases as well: -bang The command can take a ! modifier (like :q or :w)and
Replacement text
The replacement text for a user defined command is scanned for special escape
sequences, using <...> notation. Escape sequences are replaced with values
from the entered command line, and all other text is copied unchanged. The
resulting string is executed as an Ex command. [...]
The valid escape sequences are [...] <bang> (See the '-bang' attribute) Expands to a ! if the command was executed with a ! modifier, otherwise expands to nothing. [...] Try that:
:cmap Q! q!Maps Q! in command mode to q!.
