  I have close to 60 different macro files with a .mcr extention that
would require changing if I followed your suggestion. Additionaly other
platforms that I may wish to share files with would most likely choke
on this suggested format.

  Not being a windows programmer I have no clue as to how difficult
it would be to add support for a new extention. I say if it is fairly
easy to add support for then do so. If it's a major hassle then kiss
the idea off and I will crawl back under my rock and leave it alone.

Nothing ventured nothing gained.
