Hi!

Do you really need a macro or do you want to insert a
line of '-'s?

If the latter is the case, I do it as follows:

Let's assume I want to insert '-' 50 times. Then I do
the following:

1. insert '-'
2. yank '-' to register a by doing: "ay
3. paste register a 49 times by doing: "a49p

Best wishes,
Georg
