As I read the macro docs it seems the current format is:

SMB(ACCEPT)   $FW   loc

though the SMB/ACCEPT is still accepted.

It would be nice to document all the macros instead of having to cat 
each.  Most are just a one liner.

Speaking of that, I see a lot of examples where the port is not a number 
but a name (directly from the rules docs):

    Accept SMTP requests from the DMZ to the internet

             #ACTION SOURCE  DEST PROTO      DEST    SOURCE  ORIGINAL
             #                               PORT    PORT(S) DEST
             ACCEPT  dmz     net       tcp   smtp


Is this also a macro form or just an alternative method.  If the later 
is there a document giving the names to number mappings allowed?
