Why not use VIM though?
I don't like having to unplug my computer to exit the IDE. Takes a while and I often lose my changes.
I find it quicker to turn off the power through the breaker box. It's faster so you can get back to working sooner.
Pro tip: Press Esc, then type
:w
which means "write" to save the changes, and then unplug the computer and reboot.Perfect! You're a data saver.
That's the oldest joke in the book. Everybody knows you don't need to unplug your computer, you can run "sudo reboot" from within vim just fine!
!sudo shutdown -r now
