Stacking 4e template macros & old 4e API scripts

Hi,  Myself and a few friends are still playing dnd 4e and have been using the excellent Macros and character sheet  here However, adding the individual macros as token actions is starting to clutter the screen.  Is there any way to stack the macros and make them available from a dropdown as per the Skill/Ability check examples E.G. &{template:default} {{name=Ability Check }} {{character=@{character_name} }} {{?{Ability Name:| Strength, Strength=[[ 1d20 + [[ @{strength-mod} ]] [STR Mod] + [[ @{halflevel} ]] [Half Level] ]]|Intelligence,Intelligence=[[ 1d20 + [[ @{intelligence-mod} ]] [INT Mod] + [[ @{halflevel} ]] [Half Level] ]]|Wisdom,Wisdom=[[ 1d20 + [[ @{wisdom-mod} ]] [WIS Mod] + [[ @{halflevel} ]] [Half Level] ]]|Dexterity,Dexterity=[[ 1d20 + [[ @{dexterity-mod} ]] [DEX Mod] + [[ @{halflevel} ]] [Half Level] ]]|Constitution,Constitution=[[ 1d20 + [[ @{constitution-mod} ]] [CON Mod] + [[ @{halflevel} ]] [Half Level] ]]|Charisma,Charisma=[[ 1d20 + [[ @{charisma-mod} ]] [CHA Mod] + [[ @{halflevel} ]] [Half Level] ]] }}} I've been trying to sort out the syntax but I just can't get it to work.  Also, I'm considering upping my subscription to the next level making API scripts available, are there any 4e community API scripts out there that would save me the bulk of updating characters every level? Thanks 
The easiest way I have found is, as a character ability macro, have the macro whisper to the controlling player a list of buttons that will call the required macro, and then have this 'menu' macro be a token action.  Otherwise you have to do all sorts of wierd character substitutions in order to get the sub-macros to work in a drop down menu.
