BTW, since TODO contains the following task:

    ** Add a way to convert a keyboard macro to equivalent Lisp code.

I've implemented a feature that converts a macro like:

    C-u C-s ([`,]@? C-SPC M-x up-list RET DEL C-u C-SPC C-d C-SPC C-M-u C-d
    C-u C-SPC

to the equivalent Lisp function:

(defun last-macro-commands ()
  (interactive)
  (re-search-forward "([`,]@?")
  (set-mark-command nil)
  (up-list 1)
  (backward-delete-char-untabify 1)
  (pop-to-mark-command)
  (delete-char 1)
  (set-mark-command nil)
  (backward-up-list)
  (delete-char 1)
  (pop-to-mark-command))

I need to polish details and will post a patch asap.
