Re: Why this macro error: "After 0 kbd macro iterations: Keyboard macro terminated by a command ringing the bell"

[joshebosh]

for what it's worth for other stumbling upon this 

"After 0 kbd macro iterations: Keyboard macro terminated by a command ringing 
the bell"

I had the same file opened in background in another gnu screen window.
Simply closed the one that gave the error, located the gnu screen window where 
is was opened (using "jobs" and "fg" on bash), and it works fine.

So a duplicate unsaved copy of file running in background in emacs can cause 
this error to appear.

Cheers
