   Hi! Martin,

   Kewl.  You are probably seeing macro doovers for some long-dead WP/text   
   processing proggie.  I've learned to visually ignore them for the last 25   
   years.  If you find a use for them with an actual util then I have reserved a   
   cookie (biscuit) just for you, that you are welcome to collect.  Only on the   
   condition that you reveal the secret to the world first, of course.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
