+#### Quickly edit your macros
+
+This is a real gem! The mapping takes a register (or `*` by default) and opens
+it in the cmdline-window. Hit `<cr>` when you're done editing for setting the
+register.
+
+I often use this to correct typos I did while recording a macro.
+```viml
+nnoremap <leader>m  :<c-u><c-r>='let @'. v:register .' = '. string(getreg(v:register))<cr><c-f><left>
+```
+Use it like this `<leader>m` or `"q<leader>m`.

 #### Don't lose selection when shifting sidewards
 
 If you select one or more lines, you can use `<` and `>` for shifting them
