MacroRecord <Ctrl M> or <Esc><M><M>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Toggles (ON and OFF) macro recording. If macro recording is OFF,
this will turn macro recording ON and prompt for a key to which to
assign the macro. After pressing the desired key (see Appendix B
for a list of available keys), all following keystrokes are recorded
until the MacroRecord key is pressed again. After the macro has
been recorded, it can be played back by pressing the key to which
the macro was assigned.
Instead of assigning a macro to a specific key, it can be assigned
to a "scrap" or temporary area by simple pressing <Enter> at the
prompt. A macro assigned to the scrap area may be played back by
entering the ExecuteScrap <Ctrl Enter> command. The scrap area will
be updated each time the MacroRecord command is executed.

| QEdit Tip: |
| Be aware of modes, especially |
| Insert mode, when recording |
| and using macros. Macros |
| recorded with Insert mode ON |
| and then used with Insert mode|
| OFF (and vice-versa) may |
| behave very strangely. |
