Replaying dribble files

[Michael Welsh Duggan]

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.
