In vim, when I hit :wq
it is almost always an accident that occurred when attempting to input :w
. I would like to disable :wq
.
The closest I found is cmap
, but it has some odd behavior. If I do something like
:cmap wq w
I can no longer even input :wq
; it just remaps the keystroke sequence wq
to w
in command mode. Now I cannot, for example, input a search/replace command on a string containing wq
.
I would just like to alias the exact command :wq
to :w
or a no-op. Is there a way to do this?
EDIT: clarified why :cmap
is not an option for me
It looks like the best option is to just get used to :cmap
behavior. In the rare event I want to input the keyboard seqeunce wq
I can just hit wq
, wait a second, then hit q
again. I did find this possible solution but it is too complex for my tastes.
