Playback Keystrokes

You can play back the contents of an Fn key as normal or one keystroke at a time. The
following procedure describes normal play back. For one keystroke play back, select
Single Step Macros in the Notice Board Setup dialog box.

1. Position the text cursor where the playback is to start.

2. Press the Play key to enter Play mode.

The status line will display PLAY and a series of boxes representing the Fn keys.
A solid box indicates that the Fn key in that position is currently storing recorded
keystrokes.

3. Press the Fn key storing the recorded data to play back.

Playback will begin immediately, as indicated by a P on the status line. All the
recorded keystrokes will be played back automatically. When playback is com-
pleted the P will disappear.

If the recorded keystrokes included Pause, then playback will halt at that point to
allow you to enter keystrokes manually. Press Play to resume playback from
where you stopped typing.

If you want to cancel during the playback operation, press the Quit key.
