    Pause
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Temporarily suspends execution of a macro until either <Enter> or
    <Escape> is pressed.

    If Return is pressed, the macro resumes where it left off.
    If Escape is pressed, macro running/recording is halted.  A
    "P" replaces the "R" on the statusline when "pausing"
    is on.

    The Pause command makes certain types of macros now
    possible.  As an example, here is a macro that starts a
    Find operation, but skips the Options prompt for you:

        f7 MacroBegin Find Pause Return 'i' Return

    Note that the Pause command "eats" the Return or Escape that
    terminates the pause mode.

    This command was added in QEdit v2.08
