121 This is useful for quoting or unquoting included text, adding and
122 removing comments, or producing tables where the entries are regular.
124 For example, in Usenet articles, sections of text quoted from another
125 author are indented, or have each line start with `>'. To quote a
126 section of text, define a keyboard macro which inserts `>', put point
127 and mark at opposite ends of the quoted section, and use
128 `\\[apply-macro-to-region-lines]' to mark the entire section.
130 Suppose you wanted to build a keyword table in C where each entry
133 { \"foo\", foo_data, foo_function },
134 { \"bar\", bar_data, bar_function },
135 { \"baz\", baz_data, baz_function },
137 You could enter the names in this format:
143 and write a macro to massage a word into a table entry:
146 \\M-d { \"\\C-y\", \\C-y_data, \\C-y_function },
149 and then select the region of un-tablified names and use
150 `\\[apply-macro-to-region-lines]' to build the table from the names.
