WML Utilities: Macros not immediately useful.
ProgrammingMacros: Definitions for some low-level macros to make it easier to write program-like WML.
WML Scenario Tools: Macros directly useful in a scenario. Modify unit. Move unit. Return Unit to Recall List. Trap Unit. Another Move Unit. Change Keep Terrain. Hero die message. Item effect. Branch on Village Type.
