The vEdit Command Mode lets you enter macro language commands at the COMMAND: prompt. In this mode macros are immediately executed when you press Enter. This is a very convenient way to enter any desired macros and to learn the macro language.

It is often easier to use the Command Mode by first creating a Command Mode Window. As each command line is executed, you can then immediately see its effect on your file. A five line window can be created by clicking Escape (ESC Key) then Command mode window or by using the default keyboard shortcut Alt-/.
