Try this command:

it, will open up a text editor vĩ đại edit your tệp tin.

OR

Here, you can edit your tệp tin in the terminal window.

If you are still inside the vi editor, you might be in a different mode from the one you want. Hit ESC a couple of times (until it rings or flashes) and then "i" vĩ đại enter INSERT mode or "a" vĩ đại enter APPEND mode (they are the same, just start before or after current character).

If you are back at the command prompt, make sure you can locate the tệp tin, then navigate vĩ đại that directory and perform the mentioned "vi helloWorld.txt". Once you are in the editor, you'll need vĩ đại kiểm tra the vi reference vĩ đại know how vĩ đại perform the editions you want (you may want vĩ đại google "vi reference" or "vi cheat sheet").

Once the edition is done, hit ESC again, then type :wq vĩ đại save your work or :q! vĩ đại quit without saving.

For quick reference, here you have a text-based cheat sheet.

Another way vĩ đại open a tệp tin is, by using vim

Step 1: lập cập command vim FILENAME

Step 2: Press i vĩ đại edit

Step 3: If you want vĩ đại save, press esc then enter :wq and hit enter

Step 4: If you don't want vĩ đại save, press esc then enter :q!

That's it.

You can open the tệp tin again using vi helloworld.txt and then use cat /path/your_file vĩ đại view it.
