I use Vim mainly for quick edits rather than long work sessions. In that sense, I find the keyboard sequence for quitting especially laborious: Esc, Shift + ;, w, q, Enter.
How to quit Vim (possibly saving the document) with the least keystrokes? Especially from Insert mode.
Esc
to exit insert mode, as theEsc
key is far from the others on modern keyboards. UseCtrl
+]
or create your own mapping.
