unfortunately, "define" is not part of the nedit macro language, so it is not possible to define a new function with the eval() macro, so here is a rough copy'n'paste patch thats defined a new built-in macro subroutine to define a new macro subroutine.

syntax:
define_func(string function_name, string body_of_function)

    renamed to define(), which involves some parser magic to distinguish between 'define func' and 'define("func", body)'.

    also new: only allow overwriting of macro functions.
    File Added: define_macro.patch

    • summary: define_func() macro --> define() macro built-in
