- xenophonf 7y agoEmacs keyboard macros can easily operate on thousands of things. Just give it a prefix argument like C-u 1000 <macro-key-combo>.
- tspiteri 7y agoOr use the C-u 0 prefix to repeat till there is an error, possibly at the end of buffer. And if you don't want to go on to the end of the buffer, narrow to the required region (C-x n n) and widen afterwards (C-x n w).
- OrderlyTiamat 7y agohell yeah, this is what I'm on about, I'm still learning stuff about emacs tricks here. I love this, thanks for bringing this up!
