Sharing Macros

I'd like to find an online platform for my Earthdawn campaign, which is currently running in G+ Hangouts. Having a mapping and dice system ready to hand would be useful. Problem: Earthdawn uses a complex dice system. The dice you roll are based on the Step Table. All buffs/penalties are in terms of Step. You figure your step, and that tells you what dice to roll. All dice are exploding. This would require me to create a set of macros for Step1, Step2, ... Step50, so that nobody would have to type in the increasingly complex dice equations for each roll.

Which leads to the question. If I go to the trouble of creating all those dice macros, how do I share them with my players? I've been back and forth through the Macro editor and the documentation, and I cannot find any way to share a macro with another person, much less a set of macros. I'd like to be able to export my macros, or a subset of my macros, and have my players then import that set. Doesn't look like roll20 supports this action. Is there a way to do it, or plans for future development to support it?

When creating a macro there is a drop-down menu that allows you to give a player access to that particular macro.

Another option would be to create a generic character which has the base macros already figured and then duplicate that character for each player. Once you give permission to the player for the generic character the player then can customize it.

Just a note: What Drohem means in his second paragraph is that you can go to the journal tab, create a character, and then, in that character sheet, use the Ability system. The Ability system is a form of macro.

We have two macro systems. One is called Ability (found in character sheets) and the other is called Macro (found in settings tab). :)
