+  Swap file exists: {filename} (:silent! overrides)
+
+You are protected from overwriting a file that is being edited by Vim.  This
+happens when you use ":w! filename" and a swapfile is found.
+- If the swapfile was left over from an old crashed edit session you may want
+  to delete the swapfile.  Edit {filename} to find out information about the
+  swapfile.
+- If you want to write anyway prepend ":silent!" to the command.  For example: >
+  	:silent! w! /tmp/test
+< The special command is needed, since you already added the ! for overwriting
+  an existing file.
