And I'll say again what I've said before: I'd be pretty happy if I could just backspace while recording, and continue recording an existing macro (including backspacing into the end of the existing). This would probably do 75% of what I'd want in the way of editing macros. Not totally happy, but it ...

Editable Macros

I too would like to see Editable Macros, but I know this will be a large undertaking, and large things sometimes turn out bloated. Kengrubb- I don't see why it would have to add much bloat. If they could even publish a language reference manual and a file spec, there are any number of people (me ...

I am an end user like yourself. I have no inside information, but I do know that development is still happening. WildEdit version 2.0 was just released. I have been one of the most frequent users requesting a Macro Editor, and was involved in trying to reverse engineer the data files. All I can say ...

Re: Editable macros

Good luck to us all. All your enticements (shared by myself as well), were offered previously without any response. They are no longer interested in the project. It's sad. We don't even know if they are around, and I suspect that their website is running on auto. :-) ineuw- The moderators might ...

Re: Editable macros

For all those who bemoan the lack of editable macros, like myself, this topic has been around forever. I laud the offer of additional payment for development made in an earlier post, and which I also support. However, after researching the topic, the sad fact may be that regardless of all the noble ...

Editable Macros

Editable Macros.

Willing to pay.

Willing to help develop.

Willing to beta test.

What's it gonna take?

This is the best text editor I've seen. Its one flaw is the lack of an editable macro capability.

Editable Macros

Well, another year has come and gone. I'd like to take this opportunity to request for the umpteenth time that either: (a) an interface for editing macros be included in the next release of TextPad (the best darned text editor known to man) OR (b) A complete file format specification for the macro ...
