Mon Apr 25 13:37:00 UTC 2011 Slackware 13.37 x86_64 stable is released! Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team, the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing a great forum for collaboration and testing. The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription. As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions, and feedback. :-) Have fun!

|
|
<p>One way to quit <tt class="COMMAND">vi</tt> is through <b class="KEYCAP">:wq</b>,
|
|
which will save the current buffer before quitting. You can also quit without saving with
|
|
<b class="KEYCAP">:q</b> or (more commonly) <b class="KEYCAP">:q!</b>. The latter is used
|
|
when you've modified the file but do not wish to save any changes to it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>On occasion, your machine might crash or <tt class="COMMAND">vi</tt> might crash.
|
|
However, both <tt class="COMMAND">elvis</tt> and <tt class="COMMAND">vim</tt> will take
|
|
steps to minimize the damage to any open buffers. Both editors save the open buffers to a
|
|
temporary file on occasion. This file is usually named similarly to the open file, but
|
|
with a dot at the beginning. This makes the file hidden.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This temporary file gets removed once the editor quits under normal conditions. This
|
|
means that the temporary copy will still be around if something crashes. When you go back
|
|
to edit the file again, you will be prompted for what action to take. In most cases, a
|
|
large amount of your unsaved work can be recovered. <tt class="COMMAND">elvis</tt> will
|
|
also send you a mail (from Graceland, oddly enough :) telling you that a backup copy
|
|
exists.</p>
