Indeed. There is no support anymore for that feature. Macros are a simple tool for simple tasks. Anything more complicated would overlap with Babel functionalities. There's no point in providing that. As a side note, the old exporter is wrong anyway, since only line breaks should ensure to keep a real line break in the output. Also, a macro can be replaced with a more complicated Babel call, if needed. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
