":wq" worked like a charm, Thanks

It's all working now, thank you so much. When editing .bashrc, there was a
statement in the file saying not to edit it as it would be changed during
updates, so I ended up creating a /etc/profile.local file, and using the
"export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/g++" to acheve the global path and perserve it.
works like a charm. You have no idea how much you have helped, Thanks
