Saving modified buffer

Fri Apr 01, 2016 5:45 pm

I want to save an adjustment i made in $ sudo nano /boot/config.txt

So I....
CtrlX

"Save Modified Buffer" - I click yes

Here is where my question is

"File name to write: /boot/config.txt" - Then it gives me multiple options
-M-D DOS Format
-M-M Mac Format
M-A Append
M-P Prepend
M-B Backup File

What do I do here? And how do i execute the correct answer...In case its complicated?

-thanks!!

You should be able to just hit Enter and the file will be saved in the default format.

Thank you for answering all my dumb questions! I'm basically one week in and starting to get a hang of this
