• ,x writes and quits the file
• ,w writes the file
• There's autowrite for markdown files
• There's autocomplete for braces. for example typing ( then <tab> autcomples and places cursor in the middle, same with single quotes, double quotes and angled. this {<tab> auto completes to this {|} but also works with {<space><tab> auto completes to { | } which is very convenient. You jump with <c-l> or <c-j> between the end and the last cursor position
