+:cq[uit][!] {N} Quit Vim with error code {N}. {N} defaults to one.
+ Useful when Vim is called from another program:
+ e.g., a compiler will not compile the same file again,
+ `git commit` will abort the committing process, `fc`
+ (built-in for shells like bash and zsh) will not
+ execute the command, etc. will not compile the same
+ file again.
+ {N} can also be zero, in which case Vim exits
+ normally.
WARNING: All changes in files are lost! Also when the
[!] is not used. It works like ":qall!" |:qall|,
except that Vim returns a non-zero exit code.
