Macro Keys using Shift
 
In ZMUD I was able to bind SHIFT-<any letter> to a macro, this does not appear to be the case in CMUD. This is superior to CTRL/ALT-<any letter> macros due to many of the windows functions being based off of the CTRL or ALT key. Can we have this feature re-enabled? It is/was a major part of how I scripted my mud hotkey setup.

Click the Prefs button on the toolbar and in the prefs make sure you are at "User Interface" on the left and "Command line" at the top and tick "Macros override menu shortcuts" and tick "Allow any key to be a macro". Click Apply/Ok and now define your macro however you usually do it.

I already have this enabled. I am still unable to set a macro for SHIFT-<QWERASDFZXCV>. SHIFT-1 will work however. I am using version 2.33 of CMUD.

CMUD 2.35

Code:
#KEY SHIFT-R {#PRINT "Shift-R macro"}

Press Shift-R and you will see "Shift-R macro" text. Also make sure that you did what Taz said.

Btw, CMUD indeed can't recognize Shift+Letter combination, but can recognize Shift+Digit. If you want define Shift+Letter macro, use command line like I did in my sample or type manually in the Package Editor SHIFT-R or other combination you want to define.
