Has anyone compiled or tried the macro tools xnee and xmacro mentioned here?

tried to work out something but it is beyond my limited skills

Untested.

xnee-2.05-1.tar.gz

Many thnks. Looks good and useful if we can get it working . . .

Well the Gnee Gui is running but when I record, I get a message about 'no protocols choosen' but can not work out where to 'set the application to record some data'

Anyone who has taken their vitamins able to figure this out?

do you have this line in Section "Module" of xorg.conf:

Load "record"

if not, put it in and restart X

this should record (all one line):

cnee --record --events-to-record 1000 --mouse --keyboard -o /tmp/xnee.xns -e /tmp/xnee.log -v

press ctrl+C a few times in the rxvt window to stop

this should play back the recording:

cnee --replay -f /tmp/xnee.xns

You been taking your vitamins . . .

OK I found xorg.conf in /etc/X11/ and edited
and copied cnee into /bin

then did as you said and it worked, the mouse moved to edit (Geany) and the program opened. It did not repeat my typing in Geany. Not sure why? Also my auto repeat facility on every keyboard button has been disabled.

However this would seem to have huge potential in educating Puppys and others. Be interested if others have a go and how they get on

Thanks GuestToo

as a demo, you can open an rxvt window, and a Geany or Leafpad or Abiword window

type in the rxvt window:

cnee --type-help

switch to the text editor window ... cnee should type the help messages in the text editor

nobody knows how it works. i know that type of app is an huge help at work for automatic fulffil of cells.
Alone, i am unable to use it. English and Linux menus are too obscons for me.

pfeee;; macro tools are the first tools to use.. just remember a sequence of actions..
