:ggdGwq (please don't do this)
VIM Golf.... Same outcome, fewer strokes:
%d|wq
you can replace wq with x
:%d|x
Only in Vim, not in Vi.
E492: Not an editor command: ggdGwqI use Vim daily, and i have absolutely no clue what that command would do, what would it do? Delete the document, save and quit?
exactly.
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
Actually not, binds and commands aren't the same.
ggdGonly works as a series of inputs, whilewqonly works as a command (with the colon).Exactly. The colon needs to be just before the
w, not at the front of the sequence...And while you're at it, throw an
ESCin there at the beginning, will ya?If you want to cover every case (mode), indeed. 😊
yeah, I screwed it up
Huh.. I always just used :1
ggdGZZ
This actually does what you intend to do. On nvim atleast.
