I am truly and deeply saddened to hear this. My condolences to his family.
vimorvim-enhancedis one of the first things I install on any distro that doesn’t have it included by default. I have been using it for decades and am so used to seeing Bram’s name come up on the screen whenever I start the editor. His work greatly enriched my programming experience over the years and I am sure for countless other people as well. I don’t know what to say except a heartfelt “Thank you, Bram”.Looks like we failed bram :(

Especially No. 8
8: How can the community ensure that the Vim project succeeds for the foreseeable future? Keep me alive.

We all swear to honour you by removing pico / nano from all systems everywhere.
In this case :wq does not sound right.
I would go with :q! (or :qa!)
Because death always fucks up all your plans.
