I’m trying out Obsidian for taking notes, and this made me laugh.

Why would I want to exit vim?

It is much easier not to

I tmux my vim session so I never have to exit it, I just end the session and NOTHING OF NOTE HAPPENS

Just all those left over swap files I forget about because they are in every one of my dot ignore files.

set swapfile
set dir=~/.cache

No, i just googled it.

Aka “vim turds”

yes | rm -r ./.*

RIP my .git folders

But importantly the swp files in my home directory are gone, along with all my rc files but who needs them

What if SIGTERM not enough? Kill nine times. Like this: killall -9 vim. Congratulations, comrade, you have passed KGB exam.

Hmm never thought of it like that. Unix programs are actually cats, and sometimes you have to kill all nine of their lives to really end them.

Yes, one of them literally have name cat, so you can kill all the cats with killall -9 cat
