That's interesting, in fact a big impetus behind writing the original 
trigger macro ( well, besides 'borrowing' a useful feature from another 
editor ) was to make me less dependent on having the toolbox pane open 
as well. I have another macro I use a lot when coding that tries to run 
the current buffer if it is a macro:

...just because I hated clicking around in the project or toolbox to run 
the macro I was editing.

What I'd rather have is something like the command box in Komodo's Vi 
mode, that can run macros and Commands by name from the special folder 
in the toolbox. There are a few things like this actually, including:

  - incremental search
  - sections
  - vi-like command field
  - goto line ( vi has this as well )

It would be cool if the interface was almost some sort of launchy / 
quicksilver interface.
