The error message is shown because you tried running the file as if it were a program, which it isn't. You're supposed to open it through a text editor, not run it directly.

Closing the window will exit the editor but will not save the document.

In Vim, press Esc to leave "insert mode", then input :wq to save&exit.

Try nano (Ctrl-X) or micro (Ctrl-Q) for a more familiar text editor.
