    Supposing you are on a Mac, you can’t map the command key in vim when it runs in a terminal emulator, only in the MacVim GUI.

    If you are using the MacVim GUI, your mappings should use <D-…> as in nnoremap <D-l> <C-w>l. But it’s not a very good idea for many reasons among them those listed in this other answer of mine.

    Use <leader>, as in nnoremap <leader>l <C-w>l, instead.

    See :help leader and :help key-notation.
