kill-buffer would not only close the window but also close the file and this is not what :q should do. :q in evil closes the current window or the current frame (if only one window) or Emacs completely (if only one frame), without closing any file (except in last case, of course). :qa on the other hand closes Emacs completely (possibly asking for saving modified buffers). I think this is equivalent to Vim's behavior. (...)
I don't know why, but I could never get used to the way Vi's :q works on Emacs. I just doesn't feel right (that is, to me -- it's a completely personal thing, I suppose). Fortunately C-x k [RET] is exactly the same number of keystrokes ;-)
Maybe it is because of what I said above, namely that emacs buffers feel more like vim tabs than the kind of multi-file editing that uses :next and :prev, whatever that is called. Frank: I will set the customization variable manually before the (require 'evil) line for now and await the fixing of this bug you identified :) Thanks! -Keshav
