I have written a few nearly identical functions, except for their names. For example:

; x is name, such as function/paragraph/line/etc.
(defun my-x-function
 (interactive)
 (mark-x) (do-more-stuff) (modify-x))

Is there a way to automatically generate such functions? I have a feeling this is what macros do, but I am not sure how to use them. Any help, maybe including a small example would be great.

Thanks!
