In my free time I have decided to tackle creating a macro editor. My original intention was to make something for multi-boxing that would allow me to easily transfer macros across computers and automatically setup sequences based off of one macro for each of my shaman (ex: ,Fire Elemental,, then ,,Fire Elemental,). I decided that instead of just doing that I would attempt to tackle a full blown macro editor to ease creating macros and allowing you to do so offline.

Basically I am looking for suggestions on features and functionality.
The top things I want to add are english (sorry I don't speak other languages!) representations of macros such as:

/cast [harm, nodead] Smite
becomes
If target is harmful and not dead cast smite.

Auto completion when creating macros and a complete library of macro functions and conditions.

I am currently working on creating a macro parser which is interesting considering all the different conditions. Hopefully I can release something functional in the next few weeks.

What I would really like is a GUI Macro creator. Something where I can fill in a couple boxes, but also check boxes.

The check boxes should have 3 values - Blank (not used), Explicit Yes (checked), Explicit No (x symbol)

Any tool that would stop me from breaking my macros would be great! :P
