Hi Patrick,
        Thank you for the beta version of LSM Toolbox. At least for my  
purposes it works just beautifully! I would like to propose a feature  
request, if I may. In addition to being able to dump the time stamps  
to a text file, it would be wonderful to be able to also dump the  
time stamps for the markers to a text file.

Once again, thank you for all your efforts on this plugin.

Phil
