Same here. But I found sdf which seems super cool. Maybe I'll actually learn more than five vim commands now

    You just summed up my last 30 years of Linux. To be completely honest I knew vaguely of it but I've never used it before. My first inclination was to use killall, but something about its force command isn't quite -9 and it refused to terminate the parent application.
