| PackageDescription | GeanyMacro is a plugin to provide user defined macros for Geany. It started
out as part of the ConText feature parity plugin, which was split into
individual plugins to better suit Geany's ethos of being as light as
possible while allowing users to select which features they want to add to
the core editor. The idea was taken from a Text Editor for Windows called
ConText.
This plugin allows you to record and use your own macros. Macros are
sequences of actions that can then be repeated with a single key
combination. So if you had dozens of lines where you wanted to delete the
last 2 characters, you could simple start recording, press End, Backspace,
Backspace, down line and then stop recording. Then simply trigger the macro
and it would automatically edit the line and move to the next. You could then
just repeatedly trigger the macro to do as many lines as you want. |
