Can you share the format of the Macros.dat file?
This would be very useful to make changes to multiple macros.
In fact, a script could be written to edit this file

Take a look at
this thread. Should be somewhat informative.
Though the Macros.dat file is a text file and can be edited be very careful and always backup the file before editing. Also, DO NOT edit Macros.dat while Macro Scheduler is running. That is to say, a "script" should not edit Macros.dat. If Macro Scheduler is closed, your "script" won't run. A script would need to be compiled and run as an executable while Macro Scheduler is closed.... not merely minimised.
