Hi Gang,
I need a macro that takes instructions from a list of variables.  For
example the ASCII text file would look like this:
snip===============================================================snip
"{[a-z]}U{[a-z]}", "\1u\2", "x"
"{[a-z]}T'", "\1?"+chr(34), "ix"
"die", " the", "w"
"took", "look", "w"
"failing", "falling", "w"
"feet", "feel", "w"
"sit", "sir", "w"
"fight", "right", "w"
"stiff", "still", "w"
snip===============================================================snip
And because I am having problems with my wrist, it would be easy if the
macro would use  to look for the first part of the replacement
string.  The  would be the second part of the replacement string.
And whatever is in the third section would be the options.  Any of them
including x.
The macro should continue until the end of file is found and then
automatically jump to the second line and so on, until the entire list
is finished.  The  key might have the option of showing what line
is being executed at the time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Skip
