Koenecke ("Mike's Macros and Tips") -
https://www.macros.koenecke.us/

Some examples on Mike's site -
- MacroMenu.zip - play your frequently-used macros from a push-button list. [Also see EZMenu here on the Toolbox, which lets you create your own pop-up menu to play other macros, insert text, etc. Similar customizable menus can be found on the 2key macros page (some with pop up menus, and some without them).]
- ConvNum.zip (v.2.03), which takes any numeric input and converts it into the corresponding words, including those that might be found on bank checks (e.g., if the input is "$1234.56" it is converted to "One Thousand Two Hundred Thirty-Four and 56/100 Dollars ($1,234.56)").
- Directories toolbar concept - a graphic screen shot of Mike's personal WordPerfect setup, showing the Directories toolbar running down the left of the screen. Each button accesses a separate directory (instructions included). [Also see VerticalToolbar.pdf, a PDF file viewable and downloadable here on the Toolbox. which is based on Mike's concept.]

WordPerfect Language Assistants (Greek, Hebrew, Cyrillic) -

https://www.smouter.net/wpassist

WP Language Assistants [these are WordPerfect macros along with a small Readme.wpd document ("user manual") inside a ZIP file that is freely downloadable from Willem Smouter's site; as he explains:

"WordPerfect offers nice character [symbol]-sets * for languages with non-latin characters. Language Modules are available to type them. For those who want to include just a few lines of foreign characters in their documents, however, these official [character set] Modules are not easy to use.

As an alternative, Willem developed Greek, Hebrew and Cyrillic WP Assistants." [for WP DOS and WordPerfect for Windows (various versions of them). Freeware, but not evaluated by Barry MacDonnell; however, the macros appear to use only standard Corel Perfectscript macro commands, and these "Assistants" have been referenced several times on WordPerfect Universe. ]
----------
* WordPerfect's built-in symbol sets can be accessed with Insert, Symbol... or the standard shortcut key Ctrl+W.
