The attached (provided I get it attached) patch is
based on the most recent as of May 20, 2004. the one
that extracts into a directory called
xmacro-pre0.3-20000911. The patch does two things I
find helpful.

First, it adds a MilliDelay command to xmacroplay for
finer control of timing. For example, when using a
Mozilla right-click menu to save a frame to a file, it
is necessary to wait a few tens or hundreds of
milliseconds between some of the operations, but
waiting a full second at each step makes the sequence
run painfully slowly. Increasing the default delay to
match the longest required delay would make things too
slow.

Second, it makes the xmacroplay "String" command twice
as fast as default. Ideally, there could be a separate
command-line option for string delay, but I'm too lazy
to do that much work. :-)

Many thanks to the developer.
