Answers for MathType: 1) Gobal changes are not possible. 2) "Macros"
are not written description but are rather a type of template. Thus
you can insert a frequently-used expression into a more complex expression
by mouse-clicking on (or keyboarding for) the stored element. Any change
desired in this resulting inserted material would be edited in the 
standard WYSIWYG way.
