The Vim manpage should begin with how to exit Vim.
For anyone who doesn't know:
vim
comes preinstalled with vimtutor
Exiting
vim
is in lesson 1.2:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 1.2: EXITING VIM
!! NOTE: Before executing any of the steps below, read this entire lesson!!
1. Press the <ESC> key (to make sure you are in Normal mode).
2. Type: :q! <ENTER>.
This exits the editor, DISCARDING any changes you have made.
3. Get back here by executing the command that got you into this tutor. That
might be: vimtutor <ENTER>
4. If you have these steps memorized and are confident, execute steps
1 through 3 to exit and re-enter the editor.
NOTE: :q! <ENTER> discards any changes you made. In a few lessons you
will learn how to save the changes to a file.
5. Move the cursor down to lesson 1.3.
