vim: how to quit vim when I split window?

Question

I have to type :q many times if I split window (or open file in a new tab) in vim to close every splited window( or tabs). Is there any way to exit vim just type one time :q and save all changes?

Answer 1

To save and quit all. This is what you need.

:wqa

Note that the following will do the same thing because :xa is a synonym for :wqa. This is my favourite since it is shorter to type.

:xa

To quit all:

:qa

To not save (lose changes) and quit all:

:qa!

Answer 2

:qa
:wqa

Mnemonic: write quit all. You can access the docs like this from within Vim:

:help :quit
