Are you saying that one could assign a keyboard macro to the Enter key, but the behavior will be unpredictable or are you implying that one cannot even assign a keyboard macro to the Enter key? By the way, I'm referring to the big key that's often labeled "Enter" and sometimes sports a bent arrow pointing left, not the key on the numeric keypad. (I'm not trying to be a wiseass. I just don't understand the assertion that the Enter key cannot be reassigned.)
I would consider the behavior unpredictable and unsupported. I don't plan on supporting it and don't plan on testing its behavior in various situations. In the Windows version, I don't support redefining the , , and keys. Please consider them hard-wired because they really are hard-wired in some places including inside Windows.
Alternatively, you might try implementing the keystroke event macro, often referred to as "template editing". This could test if the last pressed key was , check the context and then perform the required operation.
