:q!Either that or ":wq" if you actually want to write things. These are the only commands one really needs to use VIM in a most basic sense. I don't get how it's so hard to remember or whatever
:xif you want to save a keystroke ;)True that! For me it's just mostly muscle memory now, 'x' makes me think execute which is why I'll never be able to use it without hesitating.
There's so much non-info ingrained in my memory by nothing but my own logic which is why ^.
But using ZZ to tuck that file into bed is the only way I can do it now
