I just bought CygnusEdPro, and am having a few problems defining
macros.

I want to bind "Save & Quit" to SHIFT-F3.

When I attempt this, it never works. Here is what I do....
Type: AMIGA-m
It then prompts for the key to bind the macro to
Type: SHIFT-F3
It then prompts for the next definition
Type: SHIFT-AMIGA-Q
It then prompts for the next definition
Type AMIGA-m (to end the macro)
The editor exits, without saving the macro.

Any ideas on how I can do this????

Is there any way to list key bindings?

Also, I assume that ARexx scripts need to be in the REXX: directory.

Is there any way to type macros in a file, then have CygnusEd read them?
I guess I could write an ARexx script to do that.

Are there any collections of CygnusEd programs/macros? I have DevKit off
of the fish disks. Are there any others?

Cygnus ed seems like a real slick product, if I could just get the
hang of it.
