I would like to make a macro, but I don't know if it is even possible with java. I would make it in c++, but I only know Java. Is there possible a free macro maker out there? Allow me to explain. I was just hired by a web developer; he bases 90% of his business on goggle. He is a big SEO (search engine optimization) wizard. My job consists a lot of taking a page, and switching the title, saving it, and taking the next "term" and repeating the process over and over and over. I will need to set it up for a common screen resolution with mostly keyboard shortcuts (to minimize possible problems relative to the mouse), and it would have to run as a loop, because when I take the next "term", it would have to go down x pixels every time. My employer is quite ok with this, especially if it increases efficiency. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you =)
and yes, I know there are programs that spit out pages for you. That was the first thing I asked, and he has a theory. Google doesn’t like replicated content, so if it has the same timestamp, it won’t accept it. So I thought, why not a macro, same process, only faster and much more user friendly.
The only built-in macro facilities in Java are generics, and those are special-purpose - they are macros only in the technical sense, not in the way they are used. It should be possible to use a macro preprocessor such as cpp or m4 by running a program through it before compiling it, but most Java programmers would be thrown by the use of such a nonstandard approach.
In any case, I don't think that that is what you are looking for. From the sound of things, you want an automation macro, not a program macro - they are quite different things.
In C and C++, text-replacement macros are just a defined way of inserting a line of code into the program source automatically, sometimes with an argument getting substituted.
