Originally, a macro was a piece of source code that can be pulled into an assembler language program source (from a maclib). Kind of like a sub-program only it is source rather than executable, and it's pulled in at compile-time rather than link-time. Ummm copy code is similar but different - long story and I will spare you.

I guess she means some sort of small utility program?
