The last executed commands are already remembered at different levels,
so the hard task is to decide at what level to turn them to code:
1. at level of complex command execution, such as from the history
retrieved by `repeat-complex-command` (C-x ESC ESC), for example:
(rgrep "macro" "* .*" "emacs/lisp/")
2. at level of commands corresponding to all typed keys,
such as retrieved by `view-lossage` (C-h l),
for example, for the same as above:
M-x ;; execute-extended-command
r ;; self-insert-command
g ;; self-insert-command
r ;; self-insert-command
<tab> ;; minibuffer-complete
<return> ;; minibuffer-complete-and-exit
m ;; self-insert-command
a ;; self-insert-command
c ;; self-insert-command
r ;; self-insert-command
o ;; self-insert-command
<return> ;; exit-minibuffer
<return> ;; exit-minibuffer
<return> ;; minibuffer-complete-and-exit
