Perhaps a little easier is to type ``ZZ'' (that is, hold the shift key
down and quickly type two capitol Z's).  This quits the vi editor and also
writes any unsaved changes to the file.  This is less keystrokes to do,
as long as you actually want your most recent editing changes written
to the file.
