You can also type
:xto write and quit. Just imaging the amount of time saved not pressing one extra letter. ^Could save your life.^You can also type
ZZ(uppercase, so hold Shift) to write and quit. But for all of the above you have to be in normal mode, so if it doesn't work, try pressingEscfirst.:xfor write and quit. But I think the more appropriate one in this situation will be:q!which will force quit without saving any modifications, since someone who doesn't know how to exitvimprobably doesn't want to save whatever modifications they made (probably by mistake).Thanks for adding this. I'm sure it'll be useful to know and save me some heartache.
I tried out Linux a long time ago and have forgotten a lot of what I knew. I'm thinking of switching back again.
Good catch!
This is where the critical Linux adoption advice is happening. :)
