The Macros subsystem allows you to create, modify and load macro
definitions (macro "sets").  This subsystem may be accessed
through this menu item on the Management and Utilities menu, but
may also be available via a command-line option entitled
"Macros".

A macro is simply a mapping of one key stroke to a series of
keystrokes.  This allows entire sequences of menu selections, or
entire words or phrases, to be invoked via a single key stroke.
One macro definition holds remapping information for as many
unique key strokes as you like. Any key which has been remapped
with a macro will not perform its regular duty.  For example, if
the F1 key were remapped, the help system would not be accessible
until the macro definition is disabled.

With this subsystem, you can select a macro definition for
editing or activation, create a new definition, view an existing
definition, or delete a definition.  You may also edit the
information in the data base record associated with the macro
definition, including the name of the definition.
