Is there any macros that can be used for trinkets? Does anyone have and good macros for an arms warrior?

Does anyone know a macro (or any other way) to bind certain spells to certain hotkeys, even after respecs?
For example, I switch between PvE disc and PvP disc as my secondary spec as a priest, and some spells are always on the same keys (Penance, Pain Suppresion, etc). Every time I respec between them though, I need to drag the same abilities to my bars again. Any ideas?

I use bartender4 and it changes with my specces. Its just a matter of placing the same spells on the same spot on my hotbars and assigning the same shortcuts to them. I'm not sure if there are any cheks or something to check off to get the same bar layout for both speccs as I got that automaticly.

I think you'd need an addon to memorize your button bindings and restore them. Actually, such an addon would be quite useful in other ways. I often move things around for a particular fight and sometimes forget to move them back before the next trash pull. While it could only be used out of combat, I wouldn't say no to an addon that would bind to F9-F12, and memorize bars 1-4,7-8 when I press <Shift Fn> and restore them on <Fn> . I used to have different button combos for solo and raid using different pages with my shadowbolt macro'd to switch pages if I used my "Soloing Shadow Bolt" in a raid setting or vice versa.
If anyone knows of such an addon, pls tell us.
There might be a way using macros (once again I can't test it here). I believe it removes macros that use commands you can't cast, but (considering warlocks cant wield maces) something like
/cast [equipped:mace] Build Campfire;Conflagrate
might prevent it from removing the macro. Or if you kept a polearm in your bank that you only equipped during respecs:
/cast [equipped:polearm] Build Campfire;Conflagrate
I was surprised last night when EPGPLootmaster asked me if I wanted to roll on a polearm. I didn't think we could wield them. Of course I've never seen a spell damage polearm.

Depending on exactly what you are trying to do, you may want to look into BindPad - Addons - Curse.

I know the Quests Completed command allows us to check what quests we haven't completed so far, but is there any information on how it handles the quests we *can't* complete -- such as the mutually exclusive quests that lead to Pamela Redpath?

I believe it only gives a list of the quests you've completed, and leaves the question of quests you haven't completed up to you/the addon author.

Add the following to the ability you wish to link it to. For example rend, and 13 is upper trinket, 14 lower:
#showtooltip Rend
/use 13
/use 14
/cast Rend
Do a search on trinket macro and you should find hundreds of examples of ways to use/tweak this.

You can create a macro that checks your spec and use the appropriate ability, using [spec:1] and [spec:2] as conditions. You can use the same spell or different spells on the same button this way. I'd assume the default UI does the same, but bartender4 remembers my buttons for each spec without a problem.

I believe he is referring to times you respec (even if you respec to the same tree), and between dropping all your talents and adding them back, you don't know the spell Conflagrate, so the UI removes Conflagrate from your buttons, and doesn't bother restoring it later. So every time you move a point around, your button bar's full of holes.

I haven't been able to find so I thought I'd ask here. Is there a way to make a frame stay visible, but be invisible to mouse clicks? I'd like to set things up so that when I'm in a raid or in combat I can't resize or click on the chat windows but I can still read them.
I'd also like to keep a button bar up, mostly transparent, for my function keys. I'd like them visible as an aide memoire for things that might be needed quickly, but rarely, but I daren't put them where I want them because I might hit them when using my mouse to move in combat.

Exactly. The [spec:1/2] paramater might cut it, will test it when I come home from uni!

That helps, but the windows still consume movement clicks if the window would have resized had it been unlocked.
I was looking for something like the raid warning frame has, which displays text, but has no effect on any mouse usage at all.

You can right click on chat tabs and select "Make non-interactive" now, it's part of the base UI. Mouse clicks will go right through it as if the chat window does not exist.

If I have a "/cast [spec:1] Hammer of the Righteous;[spec:2] Crusader Strike" macro, that will work if I'm switching between my pre-set dual-specs*, but the button is still wiped when I clear my talents to re-allocate points within a spec.
The best solution I've found so far is via add-on: Simple Action Sets lets me save a template of buttons across all (or just some) bars and re-apply the entire template with a few clicks. I still have to reapply the template, yes, but it's far easier than searching for the 4-5 different spells/macros through the spellbook after a talent wipe.
* Not that this should be necessary since dual-specs have individual sets of buttons anyway
