Which CLl text editor is better for beginning users? 2. What will allow a user to exit a vi session? 3. What vi command will write out a file (save without exiting)?

Explanation / Answer

1. I would recommend either gEdit, Notepad++ or SublimeText as a text editor for beginners.

2 and 3: (Answers both your questions)

Hit the Esc key to enter "Command mode". Then you can type : to enter "Command-line mode". A colon (:) will appear at the bottom of the screen and you can type in one of the following commands. To execute a command, press the Enter key.

You can also exit Vim directly from "Command mode" by typing ZZ to save and quit (same as :x) or ZQ to just quit (same as :q!). (Note that case is important here. ZZ and zz do not mean the same thing.)

NEXT PAGE:

1. When you delete (rm) a link the 'inode' counter thats present is decremented ( reduced ) by one. If the link counter reaches 0 the filesystem removes the inode and marks the space as available for use.

In short, Deleting the hard link does not delete the file it is hardlinked to and the file that was linked to remains where it is.

2. Links will NOT reference the file anymore if it is moved, will be dangling and not work (will show not found).
