    Why is it bad?  Don't you use editors that have a command to save and
exit?  I mean, in joe save is ^K^D or ^K^S.  Save and exit, ^K^X.  Vim, exit.
:q!.  Save and exit.  :wq.  Maybe it is natural to me because the editors I
use are a little more advaced than the garden variety notepad programmed by a
shareware wannabe visual basic programmer?
