All you have to do is put a line like
style [name]
in a configuration file. Of course you will want to add settings like
linesBefore, firstLineIndent, leftMargin, emphasis, etc.
In a semantic action file you simplly give the name of the style in
the first column. Styles can be nested. This might be done, for example,
on the title page of a book, where the outermost style might have the
format centered and the nested styles might have linesBefore and
linesAfter.

Please explain further, I don't understand how to create a style
which is not associated with a semantic action.

The documentation has several examples of macros.
Not all styles are associated with semantic actions. This is true only
of predefined styles. The user can create new styles independent of any
semantic action. Several users have done so.

What quite do you mean when you say combine semantic actions and
styles, these do not seem mutually exclusive anyway (eg. a node with
a style is also associated with a semantic action).

John mentioned it to me some time ago. It is undocumented and largely untested.
I think its main purpose is to let you combine actions and styles.
I'll have to see if I can find the message he sent to me describing it.

Subject: [liblouis-liblouisxml] LibLouisUTDML, macro nodes
Hello,
Whilst looking at the LibLouisUTDML source code I keep finding references to
nodes having macros. What is a macro node and how to use this feature?
I did a search of the liblouisutdml documentation for the word macro and
nothing came up.
