Not sure I follow.  When you recorded the macro, was C-n moving by
logical lines or by screen lines?  If the former, how did you get it
to move by logical lines, when the default is to move by screen lines?

Write a command that binds line-move-visual to nil and invokes
next-line, then bind it to some key, and use that key when you record
the macro.

But maybe your answer to my first questions above will explain to me
that I misunderstood you all the way.
