        I use quake style terminals, and often start writing a file and completely forget about it and turn off the computer, and only remember what i left behind when i find the random recovery files around, so :w a lot is quite useful for me.

            Yes, on classic fps you could spaw a console that will drop down from the top os the screen, some terminal emulators allow you to do that.

            I like it because then i have the terminal always open that i just draw from the top of the screen with a keypress

            On KDE i do that with Yakuake, and on gnome with tilix

      This will allow you to ctrl+s to save. I tried to add this in a backtick code line/block but it removes part of the syntax.
