To install:
Download the file umpgmfunctions.zip and extract it into the folder where Macro Express is already installed. This will create the folders Editor and Scripts under the Macro Express folder. Additionally it will copy several icons into your icon directory.

To use:
In the Macro Express Editor, click File | Open Macro File. Then browse into the Macro Express\Editor folder and load the "PGM Functions.mex" macro file. To start the demonstration press the Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F1 keys.

How it works:
Most of the macro systems that we design utilize sets of pre-designed function libraries. One function simply calls another as shown in this set. We found the Macro Express MEX file to be an ideal vehicle for our macro system designs, and is easily manipulated directly, or with the Macro Express supplied editor. Individual function (macro) names begin and end with a brace to minimize the possibility of duplicating nick names of other macros. Additionally, the braces serve as legal file name characters. Each function is commented, and there are several "introduction" functions which demonstrate how to use each in a set. The top-level introduction/demonstration function is a hot-key (Ctrl Alt Shift F1) macro called "{ Introduction }". Naturally, any of these functions can be imported into your own macro file(s). There's really no need to import the { Introduction } ones, but it's your call. I would, however, suggest creating a separate category within your macro file for these functions, although it certainly isn't required. Included in this set is a printout of each macro script for your convenience and icons that you can copy to your Macro Express, default icon folder (i.e. c:\program files\macro express\icons) if you choose to do so.
