.SH DESCRIPTION
Record or play macros to or from \fIfile\fR

Wait for QUITKEY to be pressed and then start recording
until QUITKEY is pressed again. The time of the first
QUITKEY press is the zero time offset for the macro.

occur at a high frequency and thus can quickly take up a lot
of space.

pressed

The time between each loop of the macro is the time between
starting recording and the first event recorded.

default.
