Delete Macro 

Purpose 

Deletes a specified macro.

Default Syntax 

ESC D

Description 

This command deletes a macro when you provide a valid macro name.  A
valid macro name consists of the key that you assigned to the specified
macro using the Capture Macro or Define Macro command.

Procedure 

To delete a macro: 

   1.  Press ESC, then press the D key.  HP EDIT displays Specify 
       macroname on the message line.  If the key assigned to the macro
       is prefixed by the Meta key, proceed to step 2.  If not, skip to
       step 3.

   2.  Press ESC. HP EDIT displays Specify meta-macroname on the message
       line.

   3.  Press the key assigned to the macro that you want to delete.  HP
       EDIT responds to a valid key entry by deleting the corresponding
       macro and displaying 1 macro deleted on the message line.

       If you specify an undefined macro name, HP EDIT displays Macro X 
       does not exist on the message line, where X represents the
       specified undefined macro name.
