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.
