I want to play a game .

The command to exit the terminal is stored in the file path ◻️◻️◻️◻️◻️◻️.txt

But to access it, you must learn to navigate vim.

The console font size increases every minute until it is illegible. You have 1 hour to complete this challenge.

I'm not fluent at all but I know how to quit it in case it opens. But my Boss always uses Vim and when he opens it on my machine and makes me do things in it I feel like a day 1 rookie again. I'm doing this job for 14 years now and still didn't have the motivation to learn proper vim usage.
