Summary: Repeat macro until end of file

Initial Comment:
In JEdit 4.2.3 there is a menu option Macros/Repeat last Macro. 
This repeats the Macro only once.
For modifications in a big file it would be desirable, if a macro could be repeated until 
the end of file is reached.
In my case e.g., I want to delete every line in which a certain expression occurs.
The feature is also contained in other macro-capable editors (UltraEdit).

Message:
Hi, I don't think it has a meaning. For a macro, there is no end or
beginning of file, a macro can do anything.
If a macro should delete several lines then the macro should be rewritten
