Imagine you've got file with FirstName|LastName| like this :
John|toto|
Hanz|titi|
and want to put the first names at the end of the lines (just an stupid exemple). You may use Macro Recordind for that and type:
Arrow-down Home Ctrl-Space Ctrl-s | RET Arrow-left Ctrl-C End Ctrl-v
Under Linux, the execution of the macro rings the bell, hence doesn't work. But under Windows it works fine ! Isn't that a shame ? :)
If we look at the macro definitions, the results are just a very litlle bit different. Under Linux:
(fset 'makeMail2
(lambda (&optional arg)
"Keyboard macro."
(interactive "p")
(kmacro-exec-ring-item
(quote '([down home 67108896 19 124 return left 3 3 timeout end 22]
0
"%d"))
arg)))`
And under Windows :
(fset 'makeMail2Win
(lambda (&optional arg)
"Keyboard macro."
(interactive "p")
(kmacro-exec-ring-item
(quote '([down home 67108896 19 124 return left 3 timeout end 22]
0
"%d"))
arg)))
The only difference I see is "left 3 3"left 3 3 versus "left 3"left 3 under Windows.
Is this the cause of the fail ? Is this a bug or is it normal ? How can I make my macro work under Linux ?
NB: Linux Emacs version is 25, and Windows is 24...
