[RWP] Extending reaper with Reascript Macros

[Goldfinga Productions]

I may sit down and try to learn some basic programming skills. I've always been interested in programming, and have been told that python is a good language to start with. I was messing around with John scripting several years back, but did not get very far with that. Mostly because I lost interest in the project, I really wish I would have stuck with it. It's all good, I will pick it up and try again. This project will give me some incentive to give it a shot.
