Macro with Encoding... Char Sets... OEM-US Does Nothing

[TheSimArchitect]

Hi! I recorded a macro to change the Character Set used to OEM-US so I don’t have to navigate the menu each time I am editing a file with such encoding, but the macro does nothing.

This is the macro recorded inside the file shortcuts.xml:

    <Macros>
        <Macro name="OEM US" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0">
            <Action type="0" message="2422" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" />
            <Action type="0" message="2325" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" />
            <Action type="0" message="2422" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" />
            <Action type="0" message="2325" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" />
        </Macro>
    </Macros>

Does anybody know what could be wrong? I didn’t associate a shortcut because I am happy to run it by clicking on Macro… OEM US.

I don’t want to change the default encoding. I use Code Page 437 only when editing batch scripts. Thanks for any idea, even being able to bookmark that option would be good too, so I don’t have to spend half minute each time I open a file, it’s ok for a single file but not when you have a dozen!

Maybe try:

        <Macro name="OEM US" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0">
            <Action type="2" message="0" wParam="45044" lParam="0" sParam="" />
        </Macro>
