minus-squareIgnotum@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·11 months agoI use Vim daily, and i have absolutely no clue what that command would do, what would it do? Delete the document, save and quit?
minus-squarefiliberto_kunstlinger@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·edit-211 months agoexactly. gg -> go to top of document d -> delete (actually, it’s cut, but it destroys the mnemonic) G -> here is a modifier to “d” and tells it do “delete until end of document” w -> write current state of buffer to disk q -> exit program
minus-squaremeow@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up17·11 months agoActually not, binds and commands aren’t the same. ggdG only works as a series of inputs, while wq only works as a command (with the colon).
minus-squareVictor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·11 months agoExactly. The colon needs to be just before the w, not at the front of the sequence…
