Syntax: <code>Play [</code><var>times</var><code>]</code><br>
Abbreviation: <code>PL</code>
<p class="noindent">plays the current macro for the given number of times. If the
optional argument <var>times</var> is not specified, you can enter it on the
input line.
<p>A (possibly iterated) macro execution terminates as soon as its stream of
instructions is exhausted, or one of its commands returns an error. This means
that, for instance, you can perform some complex operation on all the lines
containing a certain pattern by recording a macro that searches for the pattern
and performs the operation, and then playing it a preposterously huge number of
times.
<p>Execution of a macro can be interrupted by <kbd><Control>-\</kbd>.
