New to Nostalrius, need macro help

[Päntërä]

So I checked the Warrior macro thread, and it seems that the macro's here in Vanilla are written differently. I want to write my own, so please help me in this learning curve. Let me give you some examples.

Here's a taste of something i need.

#showtooltip Intercept
/castspell berserker stance
/castspell intercept
/castspell hamstring

So with one click, you change stances and intercept. Upon the second click (same button), the hamstring goes off.

#showtooltip Immolation
/castspell berserker stance
/castspell bloodrage
/castspell berserker rage
/castspell battle stance

Same concept. One click, zerker stance+bloodrage+zerker rage. Two clicks battle stance.

Can someone write me a brief explanation of the language needed to write things like this?

Thanks!

...and how to equip different weapons in the middle of battle.

Thanks again.

You'll have to read the entire thread and its explanations. In order to get the macros in my thread to work you will need to have the addon called 'SuperMacro', this is because WoW macros are unable to execute scripts by default. Script commands allows for a wider variety of actions than the default functions and commands.
However it is impossible to make a macro that execute multiple functions in just one push if the first action triggers Global Cooldown (stance-switching in your case). Further on, #showtooltip doesnt exist in vanilla, it was implemented with TBC.
