Zugg Software :: View topic - little help needed with macros and command line

Posted: Sat Apr 05, 2003 5:03 pm

is it possible to insert space somehow so that when a macro apphends to the command line it has a space between it and where i want to enter text

such as ...

#CLASS {Gemstone|General}
#KEY ALT-Z {putcontainer} "" {append|nosend}
#KEY ALT-X {lookcontainer}
#KEY ALT-C {getcontainer} "" {append|nosend}
#ALIAS lookcontainer {open my @container;look in my @container;close my @container}
#ALIAS putcontainer {open my @container;get %1;put %1 in my @container;close my container}
#ALIAS getcontainer {open my @container;get %1 from my @container;close my container}
#CLASS 0

want command line to appear as

getcontainer <curser>

as opposed to as it is

getcontainer<cursor>

thanks Nazradin

Hi
Use

#KEY ALT-C {"getcontainer "} "" {append|nosend}

note the extra double quotes :-)

nope

#KEY ALT-Z {"putcontainer"} "" {append|nosend}

still endup with the curser next to putcontainer instead of inserting a space

There was a space in the one posted by Zafrusteria:
#KEY ALT-Z {"putcontainer "} "" {append|nosend}
