What to do with macros?

What to do with macros?

"Macro", you say? Or is that "recording"?

What people refer to as a "macro" is often actually a "recording".

You press qa to start recording your commands into register a, you do your thing, you stop your recording with q, and you play that recording back with @a.

Yes, what you just recorded is a macro, but macros are not necessarily recorded or even stored in registers.
