Keyboard macros

June 21, 2026

Editora now records and replays keyboard macros, Emacs-style. Recording captures the faithful interleaved stream of invoked commands and literally typed text, and replay reproduces the exact sequence, so replayed typing runs through the same auto-close and auto-indent assists as live typing.

The recording hooks are inert when you’re not recording, so there’s no idle cost. One limitation: a recorded command that opens a modal picker or prompt pauses replay for input rather than scripting it. Browse the macro commands on the commands page.
