For me it's not a matter of *what* can be done, but of *how* it can be
done. I am not a commandline freak, and I use regular expressions only
after reading the syntax once more. In so far macros are much more
intuitive to me, but it must be many years ago, when I wrote a macro
myself.
I fully understand. Macros are for many people easier to use. Speaking
of reg-ex should by no means mean that macros shouldn't be done.
Unfortunately at current, macros share the fate of many good features.
They wait until someone has the time to implement them.
Macros itself can be broken down into 2 categories:
- record and replay (based on keystrokes)
- script language macros
of course, if you have a script language, this includes record and replay.
BTW, I also would like to have the Close button on editor pages on
Windows, on demand. An according option already exists, but it seems
not to work. It's much easier to click on such an button, instead of
selecting a page with the mouse, and then use the keyboard or further
mouse clicks to close the page.
Windows by default doesn't have that. only option is to make tabs owner
drawn.
I have no idea what the plans or acceptance towards this is....
BTW, you can middle-click the tab to close it, if your mouse has a
middle button (or wheel that can be clicked). CTRL-middle click does
close *all* other tabs.
