What a great comment from a longtime member of HN. Not only did you make a wonderful example of name-calling and an ad-hominem argument in a single sentence, you also failed to dispute the central argument which was that time is lost while translating the macro.

Apart from your already ( apparently )wast knowledge of various development tools, please also consider improving your conversational skills.

In Vim, Ctrl-W followed by i will try to open the definition of the identifier under the cursor in the files included by the current file (sometimes it only finds references or useless mentions inside of comments, though).
