[Therion] Possible macros

[Andrew Atkinson]

I am not sure about exact placing of cross-sections this is further 
ahead than I am going at the moment.

As for cross sections on one page I was thinking along the lines of been 
able to list a coordinate and a cross-section scrap. You can do this at 
the moment within the same th2 file as the scrap is in. I just want to 
be able to do that in any th2 file, possibly a blank one.

Hope that makes sense
