Oh dear. What are the chances this will eventually rank fairly highly on search engines - this is going to ruin the soul of the unsuspecting people who end up thinking that this is not satirical advice.
- jerzyt 7y agoIf you don't see it's a joke, Vim is not for you. Stick with Notepad or Google Docs. Obviously, it's not aimed at you :-;
- gpmcadam 7y agoTo clarify, if someone gets stuck in 'vim' when debugging an issue and searches the web for "how to exit vim" and ends up on the document linked in the OP ... your advice is "stick with Notepad"?
- Zenst 7y agoBetter they ruin their own soul than inflict upon others is the way to look at that. But then, what type of people don't RTFM besides the whole generation that treat google as their manual and when the internets down, so is there `knowledge` /s.
- cerebellum42 7y agoRTFM clearly does not apply because you can't read it if you're in vim and can't exit ;)
- Zenst 7y ago:h or failing that, the tried and trusted :!man vim Though I'm wondering how many have discovered the first one with some frantic help me after typing the : and got there by accident. Oh you can apparently just hit F1 in vim, wow.
