Macro switch in zones?

I was wondering if there was a way to make a macro code switch depending on what zone your in... I mean, I know there's a way cause there are addon's like IHML.

What I want is the simple macro...
#show Mote of Air
/use Mote of Air

I want that in Nagrand.
So basically Air in Nagrand, Shadow in SMV, Mana in Netherstorm, Water in Zanger, and Earth everywhere else. Yes I'm an engineer.

I just have no idea on scripting or anything like that.

Good question, I've been wondering the same thing recently, only mine thought was more along the line of using the bombs in Skettis and the Arcane Charges in Isle of Quel'Danas. It would be nice to be able to use one button for both of these and just have it change depending on which zone you are in.

I use DailyOMatic for dailies.
And also this macro from the Blizzard boards.

These work well for dailies but don't help me much with what I'm needing.

Nice, Thank you very much! I hadn't seen either of those, but they are now downloaded and installed, going to go login and give them a try now!

afaik, if you want it to be automated like that, you need an addon to do it. So you'd go with this: http://www.wowinterface.com/download...eMacroLol.html

I use it and it works great.
