In my case, some macros didn't replay correctly, because redisplay
wasn't done (like editing org mode links).
It's probably unsafe and unreliable, but, using a post-command-hook,
I've managed to force redisplays anyway. Macros are way slower than
before, but they now replay correctly.
Eduardo, your 'eek' function just works fine in my emacs, using
just the (sleep-for 1) definition. I can cleanup and share my hack if
you're interested.
Bruno.
