How do I transfer Macros from one Textpad installation to another?

I just installed textpad on a new machine and I would like to move all my macros from my current machine's textpad to the new machine's textpad.

Brought to you by the user Bob Hansen:

From the HELP documentation:

How to Customize the Macros Menu
Macros are initially added to the menu when you save them. However, you can add any macros that are in your Macros Folder as follows:

From the Configure menu, choose Preferences;
Select the Macros page on the Preferences dialog box;
Select any of the macros in the list of Available Macros.
Click the Add button to copy them to the list of Macros on Menu.
This is useful if you want to use macros that were created on another PC.


Notes:
The Remove button can be used to remove any selected macros from the menu that you no longer need. They will remain in your Macros folder, so click the Delete button instead, if you want to delete the file containing the macro as well.
The order of the macros on the menu can be altered by selecting them and clicking the Move Up or Move Down buttons.
Shortcuts can be assigned to macros using the Keyboard page on the Preferences dialog box.
