    Shorten this macro!

    Hey guys

    Alright, so essentially I have this macro (and it wears a similar format to two other macro's, you'll see how soon enough), and I want it shorter. At the moment, it only works with the addon ncBiggerMacro's, which increases the capacity for characters in any macro to 1024. Now, this is a fantastic addon, but as soon as a macro goes over the stand 255 limit, #showtooltip's dont work. Which is an issue, in this macro here:

    /cast [nomod, nostealth] Backstab
    /cast [@focus, mod:alt] Shadowstep
    /cast [mod:ctrl][mod:alt][mod:shift] Shadow Dance
    /cast [mod:shift] Premeditation
    /cast [nomod, stealth][@focus, mod:ctrl][mod:shift][@focus, mod:alt] Ambush
    /use [mod:ctrl, stance:3][mod:shift, stance:3][mod:alt, stance:3] 13
    /use [mod:ctrl, stance:3][mod:shift, stance:3][mod:alt, stance:3] 10

    Basic rundown on what this macro does.
    In stealth it'll use ambush. Out of stealth backstab. Pretty simple.
    If I hold down shift, it'll pop Dance, Premed, and use my On-Use PvP Agil Trinket, and Ambush.
    If I hold down alt, it does all that, but to the focus, after shadowstepping to it.
    If I hold down ctrl, it does it all to the focus but without shadowstepping to it.

    I have the same format for my Hemorrhage (paired with cheap shot) and Kidney Shot (paired with garrote).

    If someone could find some way to shorten it which I have missed, your help would be greatly appreciated!

    Code:
    #showtooltip
    /cast [nomod,nostealth]Backstab;[mod]Shadow Dance
    /cast [@focus,mod:alt]Shadowstep;[mod:shift]Premeditation
    /use [mod,stance:3]13
    /use [mod,stance:3]10
    /cast [nomod,stealth][@focus,mod:ctrl][mod:shift][@focus,mod:alt]Ambush
    Here you go, 19 characters left and added #showtooltip for style

    Mordret, yours doesn't pop cooldowns before Ambushing.

    I was mostly changing his macro and he doesn't pop trinkets before ambush ;P

    Hm. Well, you probably want to pop trinkets before ambush though.

    Isn't poping trinkets taking you out of stealth? Just asking, not playing rogue.

    He wants to pop trinkets during ShD, not during stealth. Not sure whether it'd take you out of stealth though.

    Worked brilliantly! Thanks so very much.
