macros offline

im new so if this is a repeat i apologize. is there an easier way to do macros off line than cutting and pasting from notepad?

Not really. The best you can do is if you're using the same character across different games. You could then create everything as abilities on the character sheet and export the character sheet into your Vault. Otherwise you're left doing what I do; keeping a notepad file with basic macros suitable for a one-shot and just changing the numbers accordingly.

You might be able to use lastpass or some other auto-form-fill functionality (or write your own using greasemonkey), but I've never felt the benefit outweighs the cost. What I do is create a character sheet called "Template" (or often one called "PC Template" and another called "NPC Template"), set up the macros I want there, and create all future character sheets by making copies of the relevant template sheet.
