Re: LuaMacro

[Stefan Sandberg <keffo.sandberg@...>]

A quick google,

"A macro is an abbreviation for a set of commands, so instead of typing 
a complicated sequence of commands you can simply type the macro's name. 
You can either think of macros as a new commands in their own right or 
as subroutines."

or

"Also called macroinstruction. 
<http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=macroinstruction> Computers. 
an instruction that represents a sequence of instructions in abbreviated 
form."

I.e, it's nothing more than to save characters, to move expressed logic 
to a higher level. (read, 'lazy') :)

That's what macro means, what 'luaMacro' specifically adds or removes 
from that description, I have no idea :)
