Hello,
I have installed the Macros plugin, but you have to use the mouse a lot to use it: You have to go to "Tools > Record Macro", then enter a shortcut on a window, and finish with "Tools > Stop Recording".
I was wondering if there is an alternative to start/stop recording from the keyboard. Ideally I'd press something like "Ctrl+M" to start recording and then "Ctrl+M" to stop recording, and always use the same key to run the macro. That way I could use macros entirely from the keyboard. Is anyone aware of any option to do that? AFAICT you cannot assign key bindings to start/stop macro.
This is the plugin I found: http://plugins.geany.org/geanymacro.html
Cheers, Daniel.

Correct, the macro plugin does not appear to provide any keybindings for recording.
The plugin should use the normal Geany keybindings for record functions, you should raise a feature request or ping the maintainer.
Note that plugins should *never* define default keybindings, there is nothing stopping them from conflicting with other plugins or user set keybindings.
