[REQUEST][MOD] macro for in game chat

from Demigod Forums

I'm not even sure if this is possible, but I was wondering if someone out there can make a macro menu for in game chat.  Ideally it could be tied to hotkeys.  Basics I'd love to see are:

1. focus fire
   1.1 "Focus Fire Sedna"
   1.2 "Focus Fire Oak"
   1.3 "Focus Fire Queen of Thorns"
   1.4 "Focus Fire Occulus"
   1.5 "Focus Fire Unclean Beast"
   1.6 "Focus Fire Rook"
   1.7 "Focus Fire Regulus"
   1.8 "Focus Fire Torch Bearer"
   1.9 "Focus Fire Demon Assassin"
   1.A "Focus Fire Lord Erebus"

2. Status
   2.1 "Out of mana"
   2.1 "Pulling Out"
   2.1 "Shopping / Town"
   2.1 "Please Heal"
   2.1 "Please Shield"
   2.1 "HELP"

3. Citadel Upgrades
   3.1 "Got Priests"
   3.2 "Got Angels"
   etc ...

4. Snipe
   4.1 "Snipe Lord Erebus"
   etc ...

And so on and so forth.  It would help with PUG coordination which would up the quality of gameplay imho.  I'm not even sure if this is possible, so consider this a request 'shot in the dark'.  Also, in case its not obvious, you'd open up the chat menu and then you'd press the buttons to get at the menu, i.e. you'd press 1 then 1 to say "Focus Fire Sedna" in allied chat.

Thoughts?

Well, usually it is enought to write "sed", "ub", "s ub" etc. But it might be useful.

Those who can't say that probably wont use macros either.

I usually type this stuff out and I have short hand for it, I just thought it would be a welcomed mod.  It would also allow the messages to be clearer for everyone and it would create a common lexicon. 

I'm not trying to say the game is broken without it, I just think this would be useful.

I think it would be useful. But I don't think it would making those who don't are very good at coordnation atm to get any better. But it would probably make those players that are good already even better at coordination which is great imo. :)

Couldn't you use another program to like copy in the text macros and then you just push enter twice or something? No idea about modding :P
