Unable to detect macro

[forgotpzwrd]

ok, I might actually get my macro up and running if someone could just nitpick this for me and answer my question. This is from the site.

Go to your OpenKore main folder (the folder which contains the file openkore.pl) and create a subfolder called plugins, if there isn't already one. Create a subfolder macro in it.

Inside the Macro plugin's zipfile, you will find the file macro.pl, the folder Macro and other files and folders. Extract them to your plugins/macro folder, so macro.pl ends up in plugins/macro/macro.pl.

it says here to "extract". But there is nothing to extract. i download the plugins through SVN checkout. when i did it just showed me the macro folder, and macro.pl which i have to mention is blank.

Question:
1. is the macro.pl suppose to be blank? because i can't open it.
2. should i have really done extracting?

Now you can extract.

1. is the macro.pl suppose to be blank? because i can't open it.
2. should i have really done extracting?

1 - No.
2 - Yes, because you installed by tortoise.

plugins/macro/macro.pl
plugins/macro/Macro -> here must have 6 files, counting with Wx folder. You can delete the test folder.

uh just received an error.. i cant even attached the picture..

it says:

This program has encountered an unexpected problem. This is probably because of a recent server update, a bug in this program or in one of the plugins.

back to zero.

Still ?

Still.

I have removed the macros.txt. put a new one. saved in UTF 8 format (yes i searched). still nada. im close but im missing a bit of information, i can feel it. My bot is in separate folder, which means it has its own start.exe, so i use that to check if the macros is installed. but i kept getting this error message.

What should i look for?

i have finally made it to work! this guy helped a ton. thanks a lot to you too. i hope people can see this.
