If anyone needs the command: :q!

If you want the computer to ask if you're sure: :q

If you want to save: :wq

You’re nullifying that safety measure by doing this you know

Some people just want to see the world burning

Nah, the safety measure is designed to make sure they can quit vim. Now they can quit vim.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

I can quit vim any time I want. I just don’t want to.

If you want to save: :wq

Or :x

[–] PoolloverNathan@programming.dev 20 points 1 year ago

:wq will write even if you didn't change anything; :x won't. (similar to :w vs :up)

[–] fl42v@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago
