AppleScript: How to Get a List of Macros in a Macro Group without the KM Editor Being Activated?

Questions & Suggestions

I'm just demonstrating getting the XML.

Parsing is up to the user.

Although, I think I might have a script somewhere that does it – no, not finding one. I thought that I'd done this with the shell, but I can't find it right now.

@DanThomas' Go To Macro by Name (Spotlight) does this with JavaScript I believe, so you have a starting point.

Keep in mind that getmacros gets all macros.

Gethotkeys on the other hand gets only the macros available in the current context that have a hotkey or type-string trigger.
