MapTool uses established Java language subroutines for storing global macros. Where they are stored depends on where Java puts them -- this is not under MapTool's control. So to remove global macros without just right-clicking and clearing them from within MapTool, one needs to know where to find them:
On Windows-based systems they are stored in the system registry.
On Mac OS X systems they are stored under ~/Library/Preferences and then look for files with "maptool" in their names. (The author only has access to Snow Leopard; other versions may use slightly different directory locations.)
On Linux systems they are stored under ~/.java/.userPrefs/MapTool in a directory called macros. Other directories hold other preferences for MapTool.
How do I completely clear the Global Macros panel?
