I have been following this guide: [this video] However I do not have a clue what he does at 2:02? I type what he typed but mine looks different, I get: # added by Anaconda 2.1.0 installer export PATH="/Users/me/anaconda/bin:$PATH" export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH" eval "$(rbenv init -)" ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ -- INSERT -- and try and paste what he pasted at the top (above # which lets me, but then he does something and enters :wq and then goes back to the Terminal which I cannot seem to do?
