Runing a macro in a template

Post by dmaon »

It would be very usefull if I could enter a macro name in the definition of a template. This should enable me more sofisticated templates.

That is a nice idea :) I'll add this to the Zeus todo list.

The latest Zeus for Windows Version 3.96 implements this new feature :)

Refer to this link for more details: http://www.zeusedit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1035

It is now possible to run a macro script using the macro_tag function using the following $TAG syntax:

Code: Select all

$MacroExcute<macro_file name>
or this shorthand version:

Code: Select all

$ME<macro_file name>
for example:

Code: Select all

output = macro_tag("$MacroExcute<c:/program files/zeus/zscript/macro.lua>")
So for example in your template definition just add the following line of code:

Code: Select all

$ME<macro_file name>
