The syntax of a macro is:

{{name(argument1,option1=value1,argument2)
Some text
}}

A macro gets implemented using API in a plugin. But unless the macro requires some server-side calculations it should be possible to build it runtime though...

For example, a user can define the code:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p><...></p>&mdash; <{full_name}> (@<{username}>) <a href="https://twitter.com/twitterapi/status/<{status}>"><{date}></a></blockquote>
<script src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Where:

• <{option}> – option by name
• <[1]> – argument by number (starting from 1)
• <...> – text

And then use:

{{tweet(full_name=Twitter API,username=twitterapi,status=133640144317198338,date=November 7 2011)
Search API will now always return "real" Twitter user IDs. The with_twitter_user_id parameter is no longer necessary. An era has ended.
