^ Sure you can do it with a macro.  I played around with it a little, and found
out how:

1) Enter CED
2) Choose "Open New" from the menu--you will now have two buffers open
3) Enter your macro as before
4) Now, ced will open a file requester asking you to save; choose "forget it"
5) One of the buffers will close, but the program will not exit because
   there will still be one open.
6) End and save your macro.

Hope this helps.
