Technically speaking a "macro" is a custom button in your trays, and a "bind" is a keystroke. The distinction is important mainly because they have different commands. It looks like you want:
<font class="small">Code:[/color]<hr /><pre>
/bind H cce 0 CCLightning
/bind J cce 1 CCSpin
/bind K cce 2 CCPrestoChango
</pre><hr />
I team with the Repeat Offenders.
Thank you
Don't you need to enclose the bind string in quote marks?
eg: /bind H "cce 0 cclightning"
Also, the preferred bind for the CCE commands seems to be:-
eg: /bind H "emote none$$cce 0 cclightning"
The '/emote none' portion clears any existing emote/combat stance, which may cause the animation to screw up (the animation won't play, but your costume will still change after a period of time).

That's the only time you need the quote marks, when you're combining two commands into a single bind or macro. Otherwise you can do it with no quote marks.
Ah, thanks. I wasn't aware that you could omit the quotes.
(But then, I've never bound a single command, always composites.)

Quotation marks are also needed when there are spaces in the variable name, like:

But it's cleaner/better "grammar" to use the quotes always. That way you don't forget when you need them :P

/ChatSet Jello Shooters worked fine without quotes here. /setchat, on the other hand, says Unknown command: setchat

As I recall, Chatset merely sets the default channel for the chat entry line.
Using /send however, to send to a specific channel, does require quotation marks if you have a channel with a name like Jello Shooters or Repeat Offenders

Seeing as I was only giving an example of when quotes are needed, it doesn't matter at all that the command isn't an actual command. Blackavaar said it is only needed in one situation when that isn't accurate.

I am trying to figure out how to macro the costume changes to my keyboard. Basically I want:
H = Costume 1, use Lightning change
J = Costume 2, Spin
K = Costume 3, use Presto change
