Just a note, Protean does not support "real" macros at the moment I'm afraid. Although you can assign basic chained actions to a mouse gesture. For example:
It doesn't have any kind of real logic or arithmetic though, it's just a list of simple commands,.. This will be fielded by the full .NET scripting engine (which was about 70% complete before I got caught up in BlitzMax stuff, and I plan to revisit that as soon as the BMX stuff is up to scratch).
SBoxRowDelta(-1) SBoxMoveToStartOfRow() SBoxInsertText("bar",-1,-1) SBoxColumnDelta(-3) SBoxInsertText("foo",-1,-1) SBoxScrollIntoView()Which will move to the first column of the row above the one the cursor is on and insert "foobar", then scroll the line the cursor is on into view. Bit simple, but it works quite well for text inserts, there's also a load of other macros commands (somewhere approaching 100), that do all kinds of things, like opening files, find and replace, print, etc.
