Try something like shell-escapes, like so:
set editor=`/usr/bin/someprogram`
I've never tried embedding them in a macro, but I don't see why you
couldn't offhand. You just have to go through enough escaping to make
sure they get evaluated when the macro gets executed, rather than when
the macro gets defined.
