The ZZ command in Vi editor is useful on freshly installed GNU/Linux or BSD machines

Hello, I'm incompetent.

I've often wondered before if the ZZ command is really necessary, as it has the same function as :wq!.

However, I often find that I can't input ':' correctly before changing the keyboard layout.

For those who usually use only a GUI, this isn't a struggle, and if you have a decent desktop environment installed, you can easily jump to settings to make changes.

Sometimes it doesn't work well with only CUI and on physical machines!

For example, if you set up a server on a VPS, they often provide a web console along with it, and SSH connections are easy, so copy-pasting often works.

BUT!!!
If the keyboard layout is different only on the target PC in front of you, it's not that simple!!!
Since there are no other options, it's quite tough when you want to edit with vi editor in a minimal setup but can't save vi (´;ω;`)

That's why I've recently come to feel the necessity of the ZZ command, which I questioned before.

End.


Huh, is that all?

Oh well. I'll post some internet music (mainly Vocaloid) that I've been digging into lately, so you can kill some time with that. I'm starting to get hooked on Vocaloid covers and remix tracks.

A Peach Cart Five cover! It was a cover from an unexpected source and was quite good.

A Hatsune Miku project started by members of the noise band Hijokaidan? This is amazing.
There are past live videos remaining, including covers of The Velvet Underground.
Hijokaidan × Hatsune Miku × 〇◯... No, that's too much information.

The video above is a Patti Smith cover.

The real end!
