[TF] Queueing and processing..

[kevin at sb.o. (K. Ballard)]

I posted a /go macro a little while ago that can process paths that 
look like that (with nifty saving/loading macros too). Email me if you 
need it. Anyway, you could always just set up a path like that (the 
path depositing you back where you started, obviously), then call it 
like

/repeat -10 25 /go +boxpath

What that would do is execute the path saved as "boxpath", wait 10 
seconds, and do it again, for 25 times. The wait would only apply to 
the sitting time, because the /go itself processes the whole path as 
one execution of the command.

Once again, email me if you want /go. It can take a path that looks 
EXACTLY like what you typed (except the initial : and final : aren't 
needed in this case, but they don't hurt. In some cases, the initial : 
would be needed, like if your first path element looked like "open box" 
or something else with non-alphanumeric chars)
