Hi,

It is very boring to record longer keystroke macros.
it is even not possible to modify them later.

I have often to do with series of text files,
which should be changed in a same way e.g. HTML-Pages.

Now I am looking for a description of the TPM file format,
files which are output of recorded keystroke macro.

The idea is, to use similar scripting and syntax as in the
UNIX stream editor "sed", a tool should convert plain script file, consisting of a "sed subset syntax" to a TPM file.

Any suggestions are welcome.
Maybe someone has already done the job?

Keystroke macros are stored in *.TPM Files

Enough people have complained about TextPad's poor macro behavior. Let's take matters into our own hands and determine the format of the macro files. Once we understand the content of the files, we can create a tool that will enable viewing of a created macro, and then make a tool that will enable modification of a created macro. Please see my description of this project at http://www.jeffyjeffy.com/textpad and join the fun.
