Just one note to add: the stated time (10 minutes in this case) is applied
to *each* command within the with timeout block which involves sending an
event to an application. One should probably try to limit the block to
containing only the single event which actually takes a long time...else
timeouts of the other commands due to actual error conditions will take a
long time.
