I use - almost exclusively - David Thomas' Makro. It can handle a number
of different macro files, selected from a menu.

The files it uses are easy to edit is StrongED - one line is displayed as
the macro's name, the next line is the injected text, alternating down the
file. 

You can put in |i to inject a TAB, so search and replace strings can be
stored in pairs.

Sounds a lot easier than StrongMen!
