     The Execute function executes PWB functions and macros by name. It
     allows you to execute commands that are not assigned to a key or
     execute a sequence of commands in one step.
 
     The Execute function executes the commands by the same rules as
     macros. Function prompts are suppressed, and you can use the macro
     flow-control and macro prompt directives. You do not need to
     define a macro to use these features.
