Putting this function within SciTEStartup.lua will monitor return keys to add terminating end lines for macro instructions.

local eol_tbl = {[0]="\r\n", [1]="\r", [2]="\n"}

local tag_tbl = {["calminstruction"]=1,["namespace"]=1,["macro"]=1,["iterate"]=0,["repeat"]=0,["match"]=0,["if"]=0}

function OnChar(char)
  if char == "\n" then
    line = editor:GetLine(editor:LineFromPosition(editor.CurrentPos - 1))
    _,_,whitespace,keyword = string.find(line,"^(%s*)(%w+)")
    if keyword ~= nil then
    local foldit = tag_tbl[string.lower(keyword)]
    if foldit ~= null then
      if foldit==1 then
        --TODO: update folding
      end
      local eol = eol_tbl[editor.EOLMode]
      local pos = editor.CurrentPos
      editor:AddText(eol .. whitespace .. "end " .. keyword)
