can you nest macros?

like this

#file_links[names.dat,%random-1-2%,S]

where normally it would be lets say

#file_links[names.dat,2,S]

I tested it and it didnt work for me.

    Nested macros are usually supported but not always.

    But in your case you should better use...#file_links[names.dat,1..2,S]

    im using this pdf


    but I dont think its updated perhaps there is a newer one because I didnt find the functionality of ".."

    Can you point in the direction where I can read about the newest macro and shorthand symbol functionality that is part of SER. Also how to do I know whether the nesting of macros will work or not? There is a programmatic and logic reason why one combination would work and another would fail if you can shed some light on this it would be great.
