This isn't a feature automatically supported in Xcode, but if you run Xcode 3, you can use Completion Dictionary by Objective Development (it's an excellent tool) to achieve the same effect. If you run Xcode 4 (which doesn't support Completion Dictionary), you're going to have to use a general macro application, such as TextExpander by SmileOnMyMac or Typinator by Ergonis

If you want to use a C macro you could do something like this:

#define nslog(x) NSLog(@ "before " #x " after" );

Then you can use it in your program like this:

nslog(test)

Which will print out:

before test after
