Hi, I have assigned an often used combination of keys to a macro in vim, it's very simple, go to start of line and insert /* , then go to end of line and append */, basically this comments a line like:

and put it like:

I used qa to record my macro so I can call it with @a, I know, it's really basic, I have started with vim just one month ago, but still quite useful.

I want to know if this and other macros I create are saved somewhere so I can use them with any file whenever I want or I have to explicitly save them in some file.

I've read most of the manual and googled for it but couldn't find a precise answer.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

You can check this :

And I did the things they said, when I define a macro following their idea and after restarting vim it also works, so you can try.

Hi, thanks a lot!, I'll take a look
