Does anyone have code sitting around to replay dribble files? I started
writing some code to create a macro from a dribble file, but I ran into
a basic problem that reading a dribble file is heuristic in nature. If
you type the return key, you get this in the dribble file:
<return>
On the other hand, this is also what you find in the dribble file if you
type '<', 'r', 'e', 't', 'u', 'r', 'n', and '>'. Also, some keys appear
as " 0x800002f" (note the leading space), and cannot be distinguished
from a space followed by a hexadecimal number being typed in (which is
not uncommon when programming.
It would be nice if dribble files could be replayed precisely. With the
current system, this cannot be done.
