What about Macros?
A macro command rolls many steps into one. Total Eclipse comes with several hundred macros that are ready to use. There’s even a macro to perform a Google search on text that you’ve marked in your transcript. However, you can create or modify any macro at any time, even during realtime transcription. You can also export or import one or more macros to share with colleagues.
Some macros are used by Hyperkeys or Speedkeys. Below, you see the steps that Eclipse performs when you use the “Butting In” macro, assigned to the capital “B” of the Hyperkeys. Use it whenever you realize that the sentence you’re editing picks up a speaker’s statement that was interrupted two paragraphs back.
Other macros are used when you edit your document from the steno keyboard. A Realtime Editing Kit and video tutorial make this process easier to master. Soon you’ll be creating global replacements from the steno keyboard and giving your realtime transcript a much more finished look.
