Wait. Oh shit.
:q! is for quicksave
I’m sorry, I have to take your first answer.
Question: why does nobody else save and exit with “:x” or “:x!”?
I guess by the time I came across
:x,:wqwas already too ingrained to bother switching.shift zzLots of people don’t know. Just like ctrl+r to substring search your command history in bash.
I seriously pity people who don’t know ctrl+r that is one of the most important tools for productivity on the cli.
And you can hook in fzf to it to get a proper list of previous commands all fuzzy matched!! Oh-my-zsh just requires adding
fzfto your plugins list (:I survived for years with just https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions which is similarly great, but fills a slightly different role. Just start typing and you’ll see a faded preview of the most recent command matching & u ctrl+f to autocomplete it. Is gr8
e: clarified what zsh-autosuggest does
Whoa. I’ve been doing :wq for like 25 years and never new about :x.

What am I, a farmer? /s
I do.
No specific reason, but I’d rather be deep in the cold, cold ground before I quit with “:x” instead of “:wq”.
But… But :x is superior because it doesn’t overwrite unchanged files with a new modified date :(

My muscle memory is too strong from years of vscode before vim so I have
:wmapped toC-sThis is Vim’s evil mode
I have the opposite situation, I had to willingly stop myself from typing :w while using Word. And I installed the vim extension in vscode, which leads to me typing :w when using someone else’s setup.
