/mak-rol' *-jee/ 1. Set of usually complex or crufty Macros, e.g. as part of a large system written in Lisp, TECO, or (less commonly) assembler. 2. The art and science involved in comprehending a Macrology. Sometimes studying the Macrology of a system is not unlike archaeology, ecology, or theology, hence the sound-alike construction. See also boxology. (2003-09-02)
