How to workaround maximum macro size limit?

I've been hitting the 800 line limit for macros in UltraEdit for some time and was wondering if there are any plans to increase this limit (or make it unlimited)?

I currently get around the problem by running three macros over the file I'm working on, but it's getting tedious to do this for multiple files.

This is a user-to-user forum. I'm quite sure that no user can answer your question. I can't as I also don't know the development plan of IDM Computer Solutions, Inc. Please contact IDM support by email.

Workarounds:

Use a script instead of macro(s) because there is no size limit for scripts.
Save all 3 macros into 1 macro file and create a fourth macro also saved in same macro file which runs each of the other 3 macros once with command PlayMacro.
It is in general for all programming and script languages better to use subroutines (submacros) instead of one large main routine.

Is it really a line limit or a buffer limit of compiled macro what I suppose?
