  <id>4114</id> 
  <IsAB>1</IsAB> 
  <XABCoord>42802</XABCoord> 
  <XRELCoord>1740</XRELCoord> 
  <XRELLOCCoord>-1177</XRELLOCCoord> 
  <YABCoord>57599</YABCoord> 
  <YRELCoord>10111</YRELCoord> 
  <YRELLOCCoord>3775</YRELLOCCoord> 
  </INS3>
- <INS4>
  <id>4108</id> 
  </INS4>
- <INS5>
  <id>4109</id> 
  </INS5>
  </COMMANDS>
  </MACRO>
  </MACROS>
  <RECORDINGS /> 
  </MACROMAKER>

It is a little bit tricky to use RVC especially in those cases when you need to select a recorded region manually, but it is possible.

Macromaker allows you to schedule execution of your macros.
