fond memories of this distro

Why would a text editor use a key like q to quit, obviously quit is + ZZ

git güd

Now it's just running on battery

It is an emergency exit not a normal exit.

It's advice for how most people end up in vim in the first place. git commit (without -m)

Or just ZZ for me since I’m rarely in insert mode (I just press esc quickly after making an edit out of habit).

ZZTop could not be reached for comment

ctrl-z
$ killall vim

Just alt+F4, you didn't need to edit that file anyways

Just buy a new computer.

Emacs really is an excellent desktop environment

the annoying thing about trq is that us is the default everywhere, so you can't press [İ] to type "i", it'll type a " ' " instead >:(

similar things for ":" and "-"

I’m pretty sure that’s close without saving changes. :wq would be needed to save.

Or 3. Hold shift, press ZZ to save and quit ZQ to quit without saving.

5. Writing and quitting

  					ZZ

ZZ Write current file, if modified, and close the current window (same as ":x"). If there are several windows for the current file, only the current window is closed.

  					ZQ

ZQ Quit without checking for changes (same as ":q!").

four. the ! is unnecessary. how many actions are there to save and quit in other editors? ctrl, s, ctrl, w is four. move to file, click, move to save, click, move to ×, click is six.

and that's before we replace the wq with x.

Depends how you count. Both : and ! require shift as well.

Fuck it I’m pulling the power cord

You can use ZZ as a shortcut!

Its vi. When I use it, I always fuck something up and get tangled up in knots. Best to just bail out and try again later.

Are you going to save without knowing what changes were made? Bold move.

That's the people who use vi to view a file. Watched a guy almost get fired when he shared his screen during an audit and had 'sudo vi /etc/shadow' right there in the command window. Auditor saw it and called him on it. He swore that he was only viewing the file to look for a user's id, but the auditor didn't care, because he could have modified it either on purpose or by accident.

as someone very new to git who just uses it to back up their solo projects... i always just closed the window and reopened the directory 😭

More like this for me

:q!

EDITOR=emacs !!
