Isn't it amazing how something so critical to the use of a common Linux tool like vi is so difficult to discover -- such assumed knowledge is a chronic impediment to the widespread usage of Linux by non-geeks. BTW: Is case critical? ZZ or zz, or only ZZ? You'd think the vi developers would place a list of critical commands at the bottom of the screen rather than force the user to waste productive time searching the docs. Since vi is recommended to solve many common problems is must be made more user-friendly or a different editor recommended instead.
