What is `geany-plugins-geanymacro`

GeanyMacro is a plugin to provide user defined macros for Geany. It started out as part of the ConText feature parity plugin, which was split into individual plugins to better suit Geany’s ethos of being as light as possible while allowing users to select which features they want to add to the core editor. The idea was taken from a Text Editor for Windows called ConText. This plugin alows you to record and use your own macros. Macros are sequences of actions that can then be repeated with a single key combination. So if you had dozens of lines where you wanted to delete the last 2 characters, you could simple start recording, press End, Backspace, Backspace, down line and then stop recording. Then simply trigger the macro and it would automaticaly edit the line and move to the next. You could then just repeatedly trigger the macro to do as many lines as you want.
