In vi you can use :x to save and exit. Have never used :wq together, theoretically it should work, but am used to using :x by habit to save and exit. Always used reboot within ssh though. Haven't tried pulling the plug to restart, this may be the difference - like hardware reboot vs software reboot? - I don't know and haven't tested it. I probably never though of using the plug option to reboot because I'm too lazy ;-) You see, my Touch is in the lounge at one end of the house and I'm in the office at the other end of the house. Too far to walk for a hardware reboot every time I've made a change. Typing reboot and hitting enter is much easier :-) Ron -- squeezetouch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ squeezetouch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37522 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77340 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
