Why does the macro:
	map q dd1GP
give me the error :
	cannot put inside global/macro

I'd like to rearrange the lines of my .newsrc file by preference, 
sending some to the top some to the bottom, but I haven't been 
able to work around this problem. Is there a workaround ? 
And anyway, does anyone know why the hell I can't put inside a 
global/macro ? 

gosh thanks in advance if some kind soul sheds some light on 
my miserable existance. YF.
