[Elecraft] Feature Request for P3

Device:  P3

Requested new feature:
The ability to build and test a macro, assign it a memory number within 
the P3, and then upload this macro to the P3 directly out of the P3 
Utility software.

Reason for request:
The macro capability of the K3/P3 seems very underused.  In general it 
is an enormously powerful tool, but the process of loading macros into 
the P3 is at best, 1980ish, and and at worst reminds me of keying in 
ones and zeros into my old IMSA 8080 machine to program it way back in 
the day.  I suspect very few folks are using macros launched from the 
P3, because of this.

Something like the Frequency editor, (only for Macros), would be grand, 
but ANYTHING that allows for off-line macro creation and testing, then 
automating the upload precess would be vast improvement over the current 
1970ish process that exists today.
