Description Jesse Glick 2005-08-26 13:35:32 UTC
We now have Start Macro Recording and Stop Macro Recording in the Edit menu.
Great, but how do you run it? There is no menu item or toolbar button like

Run Macro >
            Debug Variable
            My New Macro

The Options dialog has a Macros section of the Editor tab, but it gives no clue.

The online help says you can run a macro via its keyboard shortcut. Sounds fine,
but what *is* the keyboard shortcut for e.g. debug-var? The Macros tab does not
tell you; only its expansion. It does not appear to be listed in the Edit folder
of Keymaps, either.
