While defining the macro, F7 inserts a counter value which automatically increments every time the macro is executed. -M-F7 edits the last macro, C-F7 sets the counter, and S-F7 sets the -counter format. S-F8 executes the previous macro (actually the head of -the keyboard macro ring), and C-F8 cycles through the keyboard macro -ring. C-u F8 swaps the last macro with the head of the macro ring. +There is now a keyboard macro ring which stores the most recently +defined macros. + +The C-x C-k sequence is now a prefix for the kmacro keymap which +defines bindings for moving through the keyboard macro ring, +C-x C-k C-p and C-x C-k C-n, editing the last macro C-x C-k C-e, +manipulating the macro counter and format via C-x C-k C-c, +C-x C-k C-a, and C-x C-k C-f.
