Happy New Year to all. :w
An earlier post mentioned having files ending up with
:q in them.
When I'm done editing, I always use :x and
only use :q when I didn't make any changes
( of course :q! when I didn't mean to make any changes).
Is this just a matter of personal preference and
does everyone else use :w:q or something else??
I use :x (save and close window), :q (close window, no need to save),
:xa (save all and quit Vim), :qa (quit Vim, nothing to save), :q! (don't
save, close window; usually a [NoName] window), F3 (mapped to :wa|wv for
"save everything, leave Vim open"), etc., and yet I don't need to be as
picky between :x and :q because I have 'autowriteall' set (which is a
great help when I forget the |up at the end of an :argdo sequence).
Best regards,
Tony.
