I've always used :x or :x! and no longer remember why. Probably it's a bad idea like without actually looking right now I think it might mean to ignore permissions (if you're root enough) and just write even if perms would have blocked it. Hm, maybe x means wq and just the ! means force. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

It's actually a bit more nuanced: `:x` is like `:wq`, but only writes if changes have been made. `:x!` has the same semantics as `:wq!`. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
