I have format-all-buffer, and currently I'm calling it in normal mode with the ~ key...

But I figured I would love to call it always when doing :w to write the file as well... is there a way to do both things?

If I understand correctly, you want to call the command format-all-buffer every time you save a file.

You can use hooks for that, add this to your config:

(add-hook 'before-save-hook 'format-all-buffer)

P.S. You can type that in the buffer named *scratch* and use C-M-x or eval-buffer to evaluate this piece of code.

ty for your answer, I had resorted to using: (evil-global-set-key 'normal (kbd "Q") 'format-all-buffer)

which is the manual way perhaps, but yours is better!
