Ok the title is probably confusing..
I read somewhere in regards to moving furniture that if you had
e.g. /echo /move forward
as a macro that this bought it to the command line and allowed you to enter a figure. However i have tried this and it does not do it..
It just puts /moveforward in the spatial box without saying it.
any idea's?

It seems you are confusing two commands: /echo is there to send a message to yourself and /alias which creates an alias macro command.
There if you want to use quickly /move forward and be able to add a figure just after it and on the fly, do something like this:
/alias ** /move forward
Then all you'll need is to do /** 100 (for instance).
Note that you can replace "**" with anything you want but test it first so that it doesn't conflict with an actual game command shortcut...
