;;; Commentary:

;; The kmacro package is an alternative user interface to emacs'
;; keyboard macro functionality.  This functionality is normally bound
;; to C-x (, C-x ), and C-x e, but these bindings are too hard to
;; type to be really useful for doing small repeated tasks.

;; With kmacro, two function keys are dedicated to keyboard macros,
;; by default F7 and F8.  Personally, I prefer F1 and F2, but those
;; keys already have default bindings.
;;
;; To start defining a keyboard macro, use F7.  To end the macro,
;; use F8, and to call the macro also use F8.  This makes it very
;; easy to repeat a macro immediately after defining it.
;;
;; You can call the macro repeatedly by pressing F8 multiple times, or
;; you can give a numeric prefix argument specifying the number of
;; times to repeat the macro.  Macro execution automatically
;; terminates when point reaches the end of the buffer or if an error
;; is signalled by ringing the bell.

;; If you enter F7 while defining the macro, the numeric value of
;; `kmacro-counter' is inserted using the `kmacro-counter-format', and
;; `kmacro-counter' is incremented by 1 (or the numeric prefix value
;; of F7).
;;
;; The initial value of `kmacro-counter' is 0, or the numeric prefix
;; value given to F7 when starting the macro.
;;
;; Now, each time you call the macro using F8, the current
;; value of `kmacro-counter' is inserted and incremented, making it
;; easy to insert incremental numbers in the buffer.
;;
;; Example:
;;
;; The following sequence: M-5 F7 x M-2 F7 y F8 F8 F8 F8
;; inserts the following string:  x5yx7yx9yx11y

;; A macro can also be called using a mouse click, default S-mouse-3.
;; This calls the macro at the point where you click the mouse.

;; When you have defined another macro, which is thus called via F8,
;; the previous macro is pushed onto a keyboard macro ring.  The head
;; macro on the ring can be executed using S-F8.  You can cycle the
;; macro ring using C-F8.  You can also swap the last macro and the
;; head of the macro ring using C-u F8.

;; You can edit the last macro using M-F7.

;; You can append to the last macro using C-u F7.

;; You can set the macro counter using C-F7, and you can set
;; the macro counter format with S-F7..

;; The following key bindings are performed:
;; 
;;           Normal                         While defining macro
;;           ---------------------------    ------------------------------
;;  f7       Define macro                   Insert current counter value
;;           Prefix arg specifies initial   and increase counter by prefix
;;           counter value (default 0)      (default increment: 1)
;;
;;  C-u f7   APPENDs to last macro
;; 
;;  f8       Call last macro                End macro 
;;           Prefix arg specifies number
;;           of times to execute macro.
;;
;;  C-u f8   Swap last and head of macro ring.
;; 
;;  S-f7     Set the format of the macro	  Ditto, but notice that the
;;           counter (default: %d).         format is reset at the next
;;                                          invocation of the macro.
;; 
;;  C-f7     Set the macro counter value    Increase/decrease counter value
;;           to the prefix value.           by the prefix value, or if prefix
;;                                          is C-u, set counter to 0.
;; 
;;  M-f7     Edit the last macro.
;; 
;;  S-f8     Call the previous macro.
;; 
;;  C-f8     Cycle the macro ring.
;; 
;;  S-mouse-3  Set point at click and       End macro and execute macro at
;;             execute last macro.          click.
