* MACRO *

Sets/Clears/Lists user macros.  .macro alone will list all macros, 
.macro  . clears macro number , .macro 1 something sets 
macro 1 to something.

Macro 0 is a LOGIN macro, whatever is in macro 0 will be done right when 
you log in.

Macros can have a single replacable parameter %s in them, this %s will be 
replaced by the text typed after the macro number on the command line.

For example setting up the following macro:

    .macro 1 .emote thinks . o O ( %s )

And running it as follows:

    .1 Chocolate

Will result in the following:

    Livewire thinks . o O ( Chocolate )

If you do not put a %s in your macro definition the %s will be assumed to 
be at the end of the macro string, therefore a macro of ".emote Thwaps" will 
result in Livewire Thwaps whatever you typed after the macronumber.

You can also create multi line macros by adding '\n' bewteen the individual 
commands of the macro (no 's).

eg .macro 1 .tell livewire
   .1 Howdy doo
   You tell Livewire: Howdy doo

   .macro 1 ; grabs %s and HUGS her tight
   .1 Gabrielle
   Livewire grabs Gabrielle and HUGS her tight

   .macro 1 .where jasmine cid\n.shout HI!!
   .1
   Jasmine is in The TV Room
   You shout: HI!!
