Best way to learn to write macros, take a simple task such as raising skills, fishing, casting spells, and try to automate it. Take a couple of the macros that are currently up on the boards for examples, but don't just cut and paste them, as you obviously won't learn anything from that. I had to relearn my stuff not too long ago, and am still doing so for that matter, I've missed a year of development, and taking a couple minor macros that other people have writen and putting them together into a working compilaition helps me to brush up on things I already knew as well as learn the things they may have known and I didn't when I study their code.

Basically, screw around with it, it's the best way to learn anything.

I've been personally doing as insanity suggested, Taking a basic thing and making a macro, then seing how i can make it better, or taking simple ones people posted in macro request and doing same.

Just keep that readme,chm open and look through working macros to see how things fit hehe
