- I think I remember seeing someone mention this a while back but I don't
- remember seeing a response. I was disappointed to find that the macro list
- menu in FCII is not changeable to the name you desire (I've only skimmed
- the manual but I didn't see a way to change it). What I did was I used a
- disk/file editor like Deksid, searched for the string AMACRO and then
- changed it to whatever I wanted to call it. I still had to have the macro
- files named as AMACRO_x but that's no big deal. It beats trying to
- remember which menu option did what. Remember, don't work on the original
- and if you can, copy it to ram and edit it from there. Don't forget to
- de-compress it before you work on it if you have it imploded or
- powerpacked. Also, make sure that when you search, you edit where there's
- a group of the AMACRO_x strings. I remember seeing a single occurrance of
- the string earlier in the file. I didn't really look at it that hard so I
- don't know what that single occurance was. Probably the title for the menu
- bar. BTW, I'm not a hacker so I have no idea how to force the program to
- load your macro files that you named in the menu. I was only able to find
- a single group occurance of the AMACRO_x's.
