This sounds like macros? Of course, the problem with macros is that you sometimes realize you should have hit "Record" only after you've completed the action.

Happens to me all the time. But if using a macro was actually worth the effort in the first place, then it's probably still worth the effort to undo and record


Definitely. In fact because of that "blind actions" that Vim has, and Kakoune seems to be trying to fix, i often record macros multiple times. I'll make the macro, but the realize it doesn't fit all cases i wanted it to.


I guess command history could be used in this case as the source for the recording.
