Is there a way to show all keyboard macros (similar to insert-kbd-macro) without having to first name each macro?
Using macros with evil-mode in case this makes a difference.

Using evil-mode's Q-key, then an Alpha Key. (Maybe this names them too?). Either way - how to dump all of them at once?– ideasman42Feb 3, 2018 at 3:42

Evil-specific answer:
In Vim, macros are saved in registers, so :reg[isters] displays them as well.

Is there a way to show these in a format I can run as elisp code? - as with

Keyboard macros are saved as a string of characters that have been recorded in some particular Emacs state. Conversion to elisp will be lossy because the information about the Emacs states is lost. Just execute the keyboard macro, like by binding the string to a key or programmatically with
