Macros are the work of Hans Nowak and implemented in 'textmacros.py'.

Nested inline macros are *not* possible, but there is another syntax 
that I think may work. I'm not sure if you can pass arguments this way :

{+macrostart} some text {+macrostart} nested text {-macrostart}{-macrostart}

See the 'coloring' macro for an example.
