That hardly compares with a macro editor, such as Emacs, which allows
you to combine sequences of searches and actions.  Emacs has even more
power than that but, Macro-Maker is a totally different animal that
only supports unconditional sequences and is not as convenient as a
built-in macro facility.

With regard to the price, I would also gladly pay an additional $50
for a good macro editor - first choice Emacs.  But, I can't help
thinking how everyone was drooling over the idea of a source level
debugger until the announcement of the $69 upgrade...  And while we're
at it, I'll also throw in another $75 for C++.
