Macros and variables are the same thing. It's probably best to think of a
macro as being a variable that takes parameters.

\define myMacro() my macro text

is equivalent to:

<$set name="myMacro" value="my macro text">

The difference between the two syntaxes is that you can only specify
parameters using the macro syntax.

Best wishes
