There are people I've seen myself multiple times; who quit vim/vi using Ctrl+Z . I was lucky enough to ask one person to just run "jobs". That was horrifying.

I just needed to share this somewhere ...

    @terraria99 in unix/linux, you can suspend any job with ctrl-z. If you then open the file with vim again, you end up with a lot of suspended instances of vim in your memory.

    Sorry don't kill me but it happens to me when I accidentally open file which is read only and I need to do changes there and I still don't know how to quit there, I have tried !q but it always gave me some warning so I always do Ctrl+z :D
    otherwise !qw ftw
