Hit Esc then type "q!" <- how hard was that? Don't listen to the vimxit liars

Don't forget the ':' before the q!, when you type ':' you enter command mode, the q command quits the file and putting an exclamation mark after the q doesn't save the file and forces the file to be closed

Ok, I may have forgotten about the ":" but I stand by the rest, if you can't remember how to do a qw, then you can't be trusted to write to a file.

So you can’t be trusted to write a file.

Thanks for being honest. I’ll ask someone else when I need to write a file.
