## How to Create a Macro ?

Macros may be created with an editor outside the program because they are ASCII-files.

During running time the system records any relevant action within a file SISCADP.knw on the current directory on which the program has been started. If the file is on the current directory during system start, it will be executed first after the interface had been built up.

At any time the user may copy the current status of SISCADP.knw on the file 'dateiname.his' with the command

           SAVE HISTORY "filename"!

In case a construction is saved as .red-file, the current history also is saved in the .red-file. After saving is finished the file SISCADP.knw contains the only command

           LOAD PART "redname"!

In case you want to save the whole sequence of CAD-commands within one file ,which lead to the current status of a loaded .red-file, the command

           SAVE HISTORY "filename";TOTAL=1!

has to be put in.
