To clarify what I mean here see attached little patch. Note that the
delay times are "inter onset times", that is, delay times between
every event, and not absolute delays like [pipe] uses. You can convert
between these two kinds of delay times for example by substraction of
successive times, if you have absolute delays in the beginning, but
you need to sort the events first in that case.

Ciao
