• An empty file string is recommended if no filepath is opened
• Note that you can initialise the buffer with contents before this

    &mut self,
    ui: &mut dyn UI,
    command: &str
) -> Result<bool, &'static str>

Run the given command

Returns true if the command was to quit

pub fn run_macro(&mut self, ui: &mut dyn UI) -> Result<(), &'static str>

The returned error type could be improved, suggestions welcome.
