I forgot to put "pause" in the original instructions. Not 
sure if anyone had trouble because of it. The on screen 
prompt does ask for it though. In any case here it is again 
with a bit of cleanup as well.


Remapping WriteLog’s Insert and Plus key operations to the 
comma and period.


Start Macro Magic

1.	From the menu bar select “Files” click on “New Macro” 
then “Quick Record”

2.	When “Macro Magic Hints and Tips” appears click on “OK”

3.	When the “Macro Quick Record” window appears type in the 
Name field a name for this macro. For instance “WriteLog 
Comma to Insert”.

4.	Click on the ”Hot Key” field press the comma key once

5.	Click on “Just Record Keystrokes”

6.	Click on “Record” then press <Ins> key once

7.	Press the “Pause” key.

8.	Click on “Save”

Repeat items 1 thru 8 replacing the comma with a period and 
<Ins> with plus.

To cause these two macros to be used only by WriteLog do the 
following:

A.	In the Macro Name field single click on one of the two 
writelog macros then right click it and select “Properties” 
then click on “Applies to”.

B.	Click on “When a window with the following title” then 
click on “Is in the foreground”

C.	Under “Window title” type “- writelog” (be sure to put 
the – before writelog) The dash prevents file names that may 
have “writelog” in the windows title line at the top of the 
screen from taking on the actions either of these macros.

Repeat steps A thru C for the other writelog macro

Lastly select “Options” from the menu bar and make sure 
“Enable Macro Triggers” has a check mark beside it. If not 
click on “Enable Macro Triggers”.

Hopefully I haven’t missed anything.
