Vim tutorial: Made Easy

Some quick basics on working with your file.

• vi file: open your file in vim
• :w: write your changes to the file
• :q!: get out of vim (quit), but without saving your changes (!)
• :wq: write your changes and exit vim
• :saveas ~/some/path/: save your file to that locationvim

[ NOTE: While :wq works I tend to use ZZ, which doesn’t require the “:” and just seems faster to me. You can also use :x ]

• ZZ: a faster way to do :wq
