Macro Description ('')
Macro Name ('')
Note: Some planning needs to be done when Macro Names are
selected. When you try to activate a macro with a name of
2 or more characters and there is another macro (of the
same Type) with a shorter name that is identical to the
beginning character(s) of the longer macro, the shorter
macro will be activated instead of the longer one. For
example, if F and F1 are the names of same Type macros,
only F will work, or if R12 and R1 are the names of same
Type macros, only R1 will work.
See "Setting up Macros" and "Macro Types" in your manual
