>Some other common ones are: line feed/^J, backspace/^H, tab/^I, and end-of-transmission/^D. If you ever type “exit<enter>” to end a shell session you can do the same with ^D.

And, related: anyone not knowing the basics of vi, can check out my vi quickstart tutorial below.
I had first written it at the request of two Windows sysadmin friends of mine, in a company where I was working at the time. They had been given additional charge of two Unix boxes and I wrote the tutorial to enable them to hit the ground running with common sysadmin editing tasks. After reading it and using Unix for a few days, they told me that it was useful and met their need.
The tutorial is small, so it can be read soon and you can start applying it right away:
