Hello
I am building a macro using edit-kbd-macro.
******************************
C-x C-f ;; find-file
E ;; self-insert-command
TAB ;; c-indent-command
T ;; self-insert-command
2*TAB ;; c-indent-command
4 ;; self-insert-command
TAB ;; c-indent-command
RET ;; newline
+9 ;; self-insert-command
RET ;; newline
v ;; self-insert-command
C-x C-f ;; find-file
main.cpp ;; self-insert-command * 8
RET ;; newline
now, what that says is make a directory in this location and name it 9
now, how do I choose a name dynamically while the macro is running?
what I did
******************************
C-x C-f ;; find-file
E ;; self-insert-command
TAB ;; c-indent-command
T ;; self-insert-command
2*TAB ;; c-indent-command
4 ;; self-insert-command
TAB ;; c-indent-command
RET ;; newline
+
C-x q ;; self-insert-command
RET ;; newline
v ;; self-insert-command
C-x C-f ;; find-file
main.cpp ;; self-insert-command * 8
RET ;; newline
but this puts 'E' at the end of the path and I feel it will not
work. any help is appreciated.
thanks
