I see.
Does this cover the most frequent non-trivial use cases well? AFAUI,
you allow to change the automatic increment in each macro step, but only
once - other cases would get complicated or are not possible.
Have you thought about the idea to provide some more explicit way to
control the automatic increment of a kmacro counter, like a mathematical
formula (a function of one argument, the old counter value, that would
calculate the next counter value)? Given your experience with keyboard
macros usage, would that be a useful thing?
Thanks so far,
Michael.
