I've never understood this - why does everyone, and I mean everyone
(including me) always use :wq to save/close vi when :x does the exact
same thing?
I use it because we were made to use it in a 'C' programming course I
went on years back (where we used XENIX.... I didn't quite get the
irony of that OS back then) so was made to learn it. I justify it now
by saying that whetever Unix you're in, you'll have it but it's all a
lie to justify using it when the real reason is that it's just what
I'm used to. ;)
