Or just use nano and have a built in cheat sheet

Edit: I just realized nano is the gen z text editor for Linux…

I’ve used it before gen z was a thing, so no.

Why do people just don’t ESC :x? Do I miss something when not using q!?

:x also writes (same as :wq). :q! is force quit. If you accidentally made changes then :q will give an error and :x will write those changes. So :q! Is you safest bet if you need to gtfo.

Now that you write it… I use :q! all the time but I did not realize. I guess that is just muscle memory :-)
