/cast [target=focus,exists,nodead] Shackle Undead(Rank 3); Shackle Undead(Rank 3)
what this does is shackle your currently focused target if it still exists in the game world and if it's not dead.. unfortunately there's no way to check range (that I know of), so if the target is out of range the macro just fails.
If your focus target is dead, or doesn't exist for some other reason (phased out of the world or something), then the macro allows you to cast shackle on your currently selected target.
to "focus" on a target, acquire your target and type /focus, the target's portrait will glow white, letting you know you've "focused" on it, and it will stay focused until you die, or the unit dies. So far I've confirmed that the phasing ghosts in Karazhan we'll encounter later keep focus even when they're not in view at the time.
the neat thing about this macro,is it allows you to cast shackle on your focus without changing your current target, so you could be healing somebody, hit the shackle key, and heal that person again extremely quickly since you wouldn't lose your heal target during the shackle.
