Return information for a macro icon.

iconTexture = GetMacroIconInfo(iconIndex)

iconIndex: Integer - The Index of the macro icon (from 1 to GetNumMacroIcons()).

local numIcons = GetNumMacroIcons();
local iconTexture = GetMacroIconInfo(1);
DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(iconTexture);

Displays Interface\Icons\INV_Misc_QuestionMark in the default chat frame.

You need to call GetNumMacroIcons() at least once before calling GetMacroIconInfo(), or the function will only return empty strings.
