  you are probably a bit before my time :)) /me is a young'n :) 'vi'
  was planted in my head when i was in my early university years..
  they teach emacs *eek* here in Sweden :P
 
  never tried 'brief' - i guess, it could be worse:

$ cat > program.c
int main()
{
  ..
}
^Z
$

  :wq looks cooler, and is consistant with :w! :q and other commands
  plus.. "ZZ" similar to "az". people might think it was a typo :P
