A method, signal, system, software, and user interface for selecting command sequences and saving the sequences as a macro. The invention includes sourcing input devices and graphical user interfaces for both input commands and referencing macro elements. Macro elements consist of macro keys such as hard keys and soft keys. The command sequence may be automatically detected, saved, and evaluated for both economy and threshold. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, the present invention provides a method, in a system using commands, the method comprising the steps of selecting a sequence of at least one remote control command and at least one user interface command, and assigning the sequence of commands to at least one user interface element. The present invention further provides a convergence system comprising at least one processor, memory operably associated with the processor, at least one remote control device for selecting at least one remote control command, at least one user interface configured to input at least one user interface command, and a program of instructions. The program of instructions configured to be executed by the processor and stored in the memory, the program including instructions configured to select a sequence of at least one remote control command and at least one user interface command, and to assign the sequence of commands to at least one user interface element. The present invention further provides a graphical user interface (GUI) comprising means for selecting a sequence of at least one remote control command and at least one user interface command, and means for assigning the sequence of commands to at least one user interface element. The present invention further provides a computer readable medium tangibly embodying a program of instructions, the program of instructions implementing the method of selecting a sequence of at least one remote control command and at least one user interface command, and assigning the sequence of commands to at least one user interface element. The present invention further provides a signal embodied in a propagation medium, the signal comprising at least one instruction configured to select a sequence of at least one remote control command and at least one user interface command, and at least one instruction configured to assign the sequence of commands to at least one user interface element. It is an object of the present invention to assign macros to software and hardware macro elements regardless of the source of macros
