Hello!
This is probably not a bug; however, it is a question I need answered and can't
find the answer in your manual. Also, there is a lack of emacs experts around
here; most praise emacs and continue using vi. I am relatively new to Unix and
to OSF (today is my sixth day) and I would like to use emacs instead of vi.
Anyway, my question is: How do I leave a file that I have either made changes
to that I don't want to save or that I have made no changes to at all; I want to
quit the file without leaving emacs. Have I missed something obvious? Thank you.
