Not with a macro.  Since the macro recording is literal, it actually
quits you without giving you a chance to save the macro.

You may be able to do it with an ARexx script.  Make one called
SaveQuit.ced that does nothing.  Then bind that to Shift-F3 with
Amiga-m, then the menuitem "Send DOS/ARexx command" then type
SaveQuit.ced into the requester, reply "yes" to the "store contents"
query, then Amiga-m.  Then modify the SaveQuit.ced script to
actually do a save & quit.

No.

I forget the exact search path, but I think it's listed in the
manual.  CygnusEd does look in REXX: as part of its search.  Use
the default .ced extension to easily tell which scripts are for CED.

No.  You'd have to use a script.

The DevKit that's released doesn't work right with CED Release 2.
I'm working on an update.  (CED's ARexx return codes have changed,
among other things).
