or CTRL-D.
If you want to close all the tabs, or quit vim directly, just enter:
:qa (enter for Quit All)
Online English syntax check
In previous version, you also can check your spell with aspell or other programs, or other vim plugins.
But the intergration spell check is first built-in in this version.
To enable spell check. just enter:
: setlocal spell spelllang=en
You will see like below, the wrong words will be highlight by red color.
If also can select other languages if your vim release words database, you can check it in /usr/share/vim/vim70/spell/ directory.
