I've gone ahead and added a new Perl sub that allows you to add your
own custom % macros. It's very simple-
addMacro('%X1234','VALUE');
SDT will basically search for whatever value you pass in as argument 1
and replace it with argument 2 with each data refresh. Call addMacro
for each custom macro you'd like to add.
This will be in 5.8.16. Not sure when I'll post it, but if you're
ready for it lemme know and I can quickly post.
Thanks
