Hello All!

I have for quite some time been using timEd for most of my message work
while at my node computer.  In the very good possibility that Gerard will
refuse to correct the Y2k bug in it (and NetMgr) I am making ready by
getting alternate programs set up.  Msged is my choice for the editing
part.  

I use some key macros that are quite important to my operation and am
wondering if there will be a way to convert some of them to work with
Msged.  Here is an example of one (the most important one) that produces
the basic message format that I use for all the postings to my Vatican
echo.  Without it the work to post all the messages would be excessive. 
This macro is all on one line (as required) but obviously wrapped here.

   ----- macro begins -----
{at}F10 READenter "All" enter "VIS Press Release--(This is a
'READ ONLY' area.)" enter enter EDITdelline EDITdelline EDITdelline
EDITdelline EDITdelline EDITup EDITimportfile "vis"enter EDITdown
EDITdown EDITdown EDITimportfile "d:\foobar"enter
   ----- macro ends -----

The last EDITimportfile "d:\foobar" presents a list of files in
that directory to choose from.  The file is highlighted and when enter is
pressed it is imported into the open message I'm working on.

I guess what I'm asking here is are there eqivalent macro keystroke
commands that I can use to accomplish this task?  Any suggestions or
pointers greatly appreciated!

Best regards,
