This documentation is automatically generated from comments in the macro and mouse menu. Doing so, it's easy for you to have a look at them without using the net.
Futhermore, feel free to improve this documentation. If you make any improvement, send me your nedit.rc file, I will be very happy to integrate your modification within Nedit Macro-Kit. You can even add a new language!
