A little warning to all you people writing programs
out there.  I recommend that you remove (if your using
it) the Macro Maker init, while running/debugging your
program.  Almost every crash my program caused, it 
either clobbered the Macros resource file, or clobbered
one of my resource files I had open.  The latter caused
me to lose ALL of the resources  I had in the file.

Macro Maker DOES NOT like system crashes!! I after a System
Error, that was recovedered from, I repeatedly (this is an
understatement) got the message "Macro Maker cannot read the
Macro file due to a System Error" (or something like that).
