I had the same wish some months ago and so I added some code to the TV-library
in the TEditor-class to handle user defined macros. But this code was sometimes unstable.
AT this time I'm thinking about reacktivting it in the IDE.

This was a bug in the documentation.

You can do this in the next release (definitely this week) ( I'm working on
the documentation).

Because DJGPP V2 is out of Beta, I'm working with the latest official realease of it. I
don't remember, if there was the libiostream library in the Beta's. But I strongly recommend
you to use the official V2-release (get it from a SimTel-mirror).
