To quit the Vim editor without saving changes, you can use the following command while in normal mode:
:q!
The “!” forces the quit without saving any changes.
If you have made changes to a file in Vim and you want to exit without saving those changes, simply type the above command and press “Enter”. This will close the Vim editor and discard any changes you made to the file.
If you want to save your changes before quitting, you can use the following command while in normal mode:
:wq
This will save your changes and then quit the Vim editor. If you want to save your changes under a different name, you can use the following command:
:w newfile.txt
This will save the file under the name “newfile.txt”.
