Hung up on saving my config file

[Andy Thompson]

I had to make some changes to my config file today and I wondering how you save the changes before exiting?

[p q]

depends on the editor you're using?

Andy,

Try posting your reply again, your two replies were marked as spam/junk and when I released them they were deleted. I'll try a different approach if your next reply is similarly marked.

Definitely doesn't like you. Andy's response below:

I am using the Terminal window.

The terminal window is not an editor. Here are the "Save" keys for common editors (nano and vi):

Oh wow.  Get yourself some free linux training before you drive yourself crazy.   You will certainly need some linux skills to configure and run weewx.   At a minimum you'll need to know how to edit a simple text file in whatever editor you choose (there are a zillion of them).

https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-to-linux is a good free one.
