Can I edit a macro through a macro?

@trych

However, is is also possible to edit such a macro via a macro once it was created? Is there for example any way to edit the XML of a macro directly?

Yes. @DanThomas has done this in a number of his macros.

Here are two in particular you might look at:

• MACRO: Pick and Insert "Execute a Macro" (Spotlight)
• MACRO: [KMFAM] Favorite Actions and Macros

You will need to be very conversant with JavaScript.

Good luck, and let us know how it goes.
