This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax

The function Programmer.SetBlindMode inherently requires the property Programmer.BlindActive. Hence, each macro sets this property (either to False or to True), and then calls SetBlindModewhich makes it happen.

These macros are useful for coding other macros, and for quickly entering/leaving blind mode on consoles witout a designated <Blind> button.
