Vi/Vim - had it on every computer I've owned or used since about 1991.

Vi for me too. Mostly because I'm trapped and cannot exit it.

Just head down to the basement, find the circuit breakers for your building and flip them all to off for 10 seconds. That usually gets you out of Vi.

That unfortunately appears to be the best way to exit. Please tell me if you know a better method.

The best alternative is to take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
